Re: Wheat Free Diet Help Please

chookies,

If you are intolerant to wheat then you may have a problem with gluten --- that is in wheat, barley, rye and to a lesser extent oats.

With your diet the better grains are rice and corn products but wheat by products is in alot of processed foods. So, you have to become a label reader.

All fruits and veggies including greens and root veggies like potatos, carrots, beets and turnips are OK. Dairy products, chicken, turkey and other meats & seafood is OK.

It would be best to go to a health food store and ask about foods that are gluten free.

I wish you well---Harry

Re: Wheat Free Diet Help Please

Hi there

I have wheat Intolerance as well.

I was diagnosed by a dietician and was put on an exclusion diet. I have intolerance to a lot of foods that I had no idea where making me ill e.g. Milk protein, corn etc.

I would book an appointment with a dietician they can give you a list of foods etc that you can eat etc. They sorted my diet out and i've never felt better. Also exercise works wonders!

I think you should go on an exclusion diet (Under consoltation of a dietician) Just in case you cut out foods with Gluten etc. I can eat Gluten.

If you do want help with a diet, let me know and I'll post what my diet is (My diet is dairy free as well but we can add dairy into it).

HTH

Re: Wheat Free Diet Help Please

Actually, a close friend of mine has "leaky gut syndrome". She was diagnosed poorly by an MD DOCTOR as a child and was told to take too much Advil and Tylenol for a problem they "couldn't fix". She had numerous sinus surgeries that failed and the Advil and Tylenol literally burned holes in her stomach, hence the leaky gut. Literally, her "gut" was leaking. She went to natural medication and was taken off almost all food but soy products for a month, then gradually, after her "gut" had repaired itself was allowed to add things to her diet. She was found to have a strange kind of lactose intolerance which, once realized, helped with her sinus headaches.

All that to say, leaky gut syndrome (as dorky as it may sound) is very real.

As far as the Wheat thing goes, I would also recommend making an appointment with a dietitian. If you have some stipulations from your health care provider it shouldn't be that difficult for a dietitian to put together a plan for you.

Are you sure that you just have a wheat intolerance and not Celiac disease?
