Mike and Cam discuss Willem Karel Dicke, a pioneer in understanding that the gluten free diet is the key to treating celiac disease. In an article titled, "How Famine Under the Nazis Revealed the Cause of Celiac Disease," we see for the first time, how this great doctor used the tragic situation of the famine in the Netherlands to begin to really understand CD. We also compare Dicke's work to that of Dr. Sidney Haas who popularized the "banana diet" to treat celiac disease starting in the 1920s, and how that might ultimately still be holding the U.S. back.
