There were 29 speakers/experts from around the world over the last seven days. I did not hear them all nor can I remember everything I heard - but there were some amazing facts - so will list them as points:-
VitD can reverse production of auto-immune anti-bodies - no dose mentioned.
AID is genetic.
Predictive Auto-Immunity is the future.
8% of MS sufferers with gluten anti-bodies
Cardio issues have AI component - atherosclerosis - CRP a risk too.
There are 80 AID's
Maybe a treatment of plasma cleaning for auto-immune diseases
Importance of NON GMO foods - Glyphosphate sprayed onto crops - eg wheat and it penetrates - challenging immune systems.
Seed drenched with Roundup (Monsanto ) depleting Calcium cobalt B12 Manganese and Magnesium and are Endocrine disruptors
Magnesium reduced when taking PPI's
T4 to T3 conversion in the gut needs good gut bacteria - Probiotics ?
Gluten anti-bodies can affect the lining of blood vessels.
LOW HDL can = Coeliac
Gluten testing inadequate - see Cyrex Labs Array 3 Panel for Gluten sensitivity or advancedglutentest.com
Most impressive speaker - Dr Yehuda Shoenfeld MD FRCP - Sheba Medical Centre - Tel Aviv - The Centre for Auto-Immune Diseases - an amazing CV. Endless research papers.
Wheat/Gluten is definitely a HUGE problem which Dr Tom O'Bryan thinks is making millions of people ill throughout the world with a myriad of illnesses - gut, brain, heart and other organs, endocrine and so on. He brought together the experts who all had their thoughts on gluten and its disruptive effects - to create this very good on-line Summit.
I have only touched on the tip of the iceberg that lurks....so time to do your own research.....
Food for thought......

That point came through loud and clear - that everyone produces some degree of gluten anti-bodies - and also that the testing is woefully inadequate. Have just found another piece of paper with notes - Wheat/gluten impairs VitD metabolism. WGA - Wheat Glutimate Agglutinin can penetrate the blood/brain barrier - that's the bit that concerns me. They referred to WGA as the Monster Molecule. IBS is gluten sensitivity or undiagnosed coeliac.
...and so on. Thanks for posting and I think you have made an excellent decision. I am on that journey now having always been careful with the jolly old Crohns - but am now being even more vigilant. It has to be the way forward and far from a quick fix.....
You can buy all the presentations for 67 dollars - have no idea how much that is - will have to look at convertme.com - or whatever it is Probably end up on a Greek Orthodox site - you know how clever google is !
Marz, thanks for your overview. I ended up buy the access package, too much to consume while trying to do fall cleanup. I think it is impressive how much research is and has been done.
I also think we need an endocrine summit, we have enough good doctors, researchers and patient advocates to be able to put on the same kind of presentation. If I was rich I would try and put one together. PR
PS I also watched Dr. Brogan's presentation, she is another like Izabella Wentz that wants to find and fix the 'root cause' instead of just drugging the symptoms. It is refreshing to see a shrink with that viewpoint.
Thank you for your post. I didn't watch them all - hubby in the UK at present so have lots of time on my hands - in between the busy bits ! I agree with your idea about an Endocrine Summit - we just need the sponsors - which is how Tom did it I believe.... I found the whole summit refreshing and even though I have had a lifetime of auto-immune issues I was pleased to learn that its only now they are putting the jigsaw together. So no need to be angry at lost years - just mop up the knowledge that is now available and move on ! Am thinking that someone needs to target medical training worldwide as all medical people need to get back to basics and start thinking. With the Functional Medical Practitioners on the move there does seem to be hope for the future.
I have been listening to the summit, it has been enlightening! Many of the facts have made sense of my personal journey over the last 14 months.... AND makes total sense of why all integrative/functional Doctors advocate Gluten free or more accurately GLUTEN ZERO for anyone with AUTOIMMUNE illness.
The answer is in the GUT and we all have the ability to heal ourselves through food..... A high percentage of our food is extremely toxic and for anyone who is sensitive it is a killer.
I am the best I have ever been and will be 60 next month! Physically IT IS ALL ABOUT THE HEALTH OF THE GUT!
I'm not convinced an Endocrine summit is needed, the GUT is what is underlying the nervous system and the nervous system and endocrine system are paired, weaken one and it will weaken the other...... If the Gut is unhealthy it will impact the nervous system and also impair the production of hormones and vital nutrients such as Vit D and the B vitamins...... AND seriously impair the BRAIN!
You can all thank Moggie for my comments, she posted this link to me LOL!!!! So it's down to her if you are offended by my comments........
...if I was organising the Endocrine Summit then I would have all the same people on from the Gluten Summit The book by Datis Kharrazian - Why Isn't my Brain Working - also covers the gluten issue and the brain gut connection - for those who wish to learn more.
Thank you NaamiSue - we hear you Glad you are so much better
