Food and Drink You darn gluten

ChiefRocka · 08-03-2012, 08:31 AM

Anyone participating in a gluten-free diet? Anyone notice a difference with respect to food allergies?

Beer these days is really ****ing my skin up (I know it's sad, I love microbrews). Thinking about switching to some gluten free beer and see if it helps.

Sounds like your gluten for punishment

Do you ACTUALLY have a wheat allergy, or are you self-diagnosed?

Self diagnosing at this point. I did have an allergy scratch test done about 3 years ago with no major allergies identified. I also have a screwed up immune system. Persistent bouts with Eczema, Psoriasis..MRSA...I'm a mess about one week every other month.

Our youngest daughter is 17 months old. In the last five months she has been on 4 different antibiotics for a UTI, a sinus infection, and an ear infection. We have asked the doctors over and over what is causing all of these infections and they say they don't know, but they sure as shit are quick to give her some antibiotic. Anyway, we have grown tired of hearing, "I don't know" so we went else where to seek a more natural approach to health. We got in contact with a Holistic Health Care Practitioner and she suggested to cut out the gluten, dairy, and sugar in her diet. We don't know if she is actually allergic to gluten, but at least she was able to give us a possible reason instead of just saying she didn't know and then try to dope my kid up.

Never said that.

Good chance the issues could be environmental. The fact that this person told you to cut out all of these and not just try one at a time should raise a red flag.

She did say that. I was giving an overall view of what was going on.

This.

Any respectable practitioner would have gone one at a time. Only way to know, well except for allergy test that actual doctors would do.
And ftr I wouldn't call antibiotics "unknown substances". And I'm all for less medication

Her problem could be that she is eating books. Might be worth looking into.
