Wheat

[Guest guest]

Some years ago I noticed certain products at Whole Foods said on the label, "No Wheat." I thought what a shame it was that some folks must be allergic to wheat. Some while later I was eating a pretty narrow diet to lose weight. I went for a while without eating crackers, breads, or pasta. One day when I ate a piece of bread I was amazed to notice my lymph nodes under my jaw swelling up...I realized that I was one of those who was allergic to wheat! I find it is, with me, just a subtle reaction but it is enough of one to make me want to avoid wheat. I wonder how many folks out there, similarly, just have a mild reaction to it and eat it without realizing the problem. One thing I always notice is that the dark circles under my eyes diminish and all but disappear when I get off wheat.

 

Best,

Tim

 

ps, After watching Dan Rather I used to think about emailing him and mention he could probably get rid of the dark circles under his eyes if he wd just get off wheat.Nicole Quoss <quossnr wrote:

So, is anything good for us anymore? It seems like there is a bad book out there for just about everything. I have been a vegetarian for almost 20 years, and have always thought that I ate well, but now I'm hearing about wheat being bad, and soy messing with your thyroid...and everything else. Not to mention that things that are thought to be good for you, are usually proven otherwise later on down the road. But then someone usually comes back and writes a book about how they are good for you again. Is there anything that is good for us, or should we all stop eating altogether? Is anyone else here confused?
