Mostly depends on the fish, where they come from and if they have both scales and fins or if they are scavenger fish. (such as cat fish) If they are wild caught, they will most likely be safer to eat than farm raised. And if they are not scavenger fish they will be safer because they excrete toxins instead of keep them in their tissue. However, eating fish everyday is not the best solution. A variety of protein is best, including spinach as a source of protein.

Celiac diseas is simply your body protecting itself from infection. It searches out and destroys bacteria, viruses, and other substances that may be harmful. In the case of Celiac disease your body is most likely reacting to the protein (gluten) in wheat. This happens because today's wheat has been genetically modified to have the same genetic code as roundup insecticide and weed killer spray. In addition to basically being roundup itself, the farming industry uses roundup on the wheat while it is growing. Thus, basically, your body is reacting to the poisons that are now in the wheat. This means, all flour products will be off limits to you. No bread, no pastries, cookies, cakes, cereal, pasta, breaded meats like chicken nuggets, no buns on your burgers or hot dogs, etc. Your body is working over time to eliminate the poisons in the food you eat that have wheat or flour products in them.
