Do not have Celliac disease.

When I have eaten anything with wheat, soy, or corn based, I get awful pain in my bowels, gas bloating, funny noises, as well as the runs. It is like I fill up with air like a balloon and then slowly and noisily deflate. Not fun.

I have had to eliminate major carbs from my diet. It has been a year now and I feel loads better, and even lost more weight.

I simply avoid wheat, soy, corn based products, as well as oats. Malt and Barley do not bother me so much.

Once and a while, I have some popcorn. Just once in a while. It is more for the fiber.As a result, I have lost more excess body fat. My weight ranges between 148 to 152. During the Spring, Summer, and Fall, I am walking more than 100 miles a month.

I eat Lean protiens, low Glycemic veggies, low sugared fruits, healthy fats. I started eating this way a year ago and feel and look my best. I do eat Brown Rice a d Brown Rice pasta on ocassion. I read labels regarding Sugar and Carb count. My husband is a Type II Diabetic and has to watch his carbs.

I am Lactose intolerant. So I take a certain Calcium supplement from my Chiropractor daughter to make sure I get my Calcium.

diet. I guess you have your reasons for saying you’re “gluten sensitive”, but it sounds more and more like celiac to me.
