About us

This project - Doctor Gluten - has stemmed from a friendship which four of us shared. Several of us had experienced problems with gluten-sensitivity and we were surprised how common it was. We knew that we all had valuable knowledge which we each could contribute to promote and help solve this huge health problem.

Our bigger goal is to change the way the World eats.

We each had skills that we could bring together to make a huge difference in our world.

Dr Rodney Ford, has worked in the field of medicine, paediatrics and nutrition for 25 years. Over this time he has a built up a phenomenal bank of knowledge on the subject of eating for health, energy and well being.

Our connection with Dr Rodney Ford (affectionately known and internationally recognized as Doctor Gluten) has enabled us to communicate this wealth of knowledge to the World.

There are a number of steps in this process. The first step has been achieved by designing and writing a series of books. To date, Dr Rodney Ford has written a number of chatty but informative books on Gluten Sensitivity, Food Allergy and Eating for High Energy.

This cutting edge information, written in this series of books, gives you Dr Rodney Ford's latest findings on these subjects. They are an important resource for any body interested in learning more about these topics. You will become confident and knowledgeable about what food choices you should be making.

Our mission is to share the latest "food" information globally so you can enjoy a longer and better quality of life. Disseminating understanding about the problems that gluten causes is our first project.
