With me it's gluten, which is a shame because bread has to be my favourite type of food of all time
It also depends upon what sort of gluten I ingest. If I have highly processed white bread or pasta I get more symptoms than if I have unrefined granary bread etc.
My main symptoms are..
- A fat bloated feeling
- Lethargy
- Phlegm
- Itchy skin
- Bags under the eyes
- Irritability
- Short term memory problems
Hmmm, looking at the lot perhaps it might be a good idea if I just bit the bullet and went gluten free, at least for a while :S
You're lucky, I have a friend that gets violently ill after eating wheat & some other grains.
