A friend of mine told me all about just how better she felt after cutting gluten completely out of her diet.
I was shocked and asked her when she was diagnosed with celiac.
She asked what is celiac?
Oh for fucks sake. Up till that moment I thought she actually had two brain cells to rub together.
The problem with all these idiots, while they have caused more gluten free options to market, the costs have skyrocketed for people that actually require a gluten free diet.
You can have a thing without knowing what the thing is. Otherwise, by your logic… avoiding learning the definition of cancer would make one immune to cancer.
Your friend clearly had an issue with gluten. Good for her for taking care of it.
I read somewhere a while back that you can have health benefits from cutting anything out of your diet, even if you don't have any negative reactions to what you cut out.
Gluten intolerance is still a possibility, but not the only possibility.
Likely because it just forces you to pay attention to what you are consuming. One of the most important parts of eating healthily is just paying attention to what you're eating.
This is definitely a possibility, but I feel for OP because it definitely seems like "MSG sensitivity" 2.0, ya know?
