Why Vegan Too? Gluten in the Meat?

When I talk to folks they say, "OK I get the Gluten Free Part, but why Vegan Too"?
Well the turth is that if we are what we eat, then so are they. They being the animals that are fed on grains such as wheat and barley. Even grass fed animal's are fed on grains in the grass' and we can not control what goes into their mouths.
There are companies out there that have tested and know that feeding their animals any type of gluten transfers to their meat, such as
Mary's Free Range Organic Turkey's  and Chicken's. But how many farmer's actually do this and guarantee a gluten free diet for their animal's? Not many, as the matter of fact, hardly any at all.
I never felt right until I threw out meat. Many folks I talk to say they have thrown out gluten, taken it completely out of their diet's yet they still don't feel good. Once I explain what I have learned andmy experiences, they kick out the meat too. Nine out of ten times I get a call, usually about three to four weeks later, and there is someone on the other line jumping for joy at how much better they feel. All because they took the meat out too.
Now of course fish does not eat gluten, at least ocean fish does not. So if you want to eat meat, fish is your best bet.
I personally just don't eat anything that swims.
