I literally eat anything that is in a standard super market and restaurant. However, I don't dismiss this whole Gluten trend as just another hipster thing. I may turn wheat intolerant in the future and as age pass, you start to avoid food that you used to eat because makes you feel whole day bloated and uncomfortable. In my case, it happened with pasta and I don't longer like it as when young.
Even if it may not be real that they are intolerant to gluten, I think that the current excess of grains derivates in everything may lead to some sort of oversaturation and therefore intolerance in our body, like when you turn diabetic. Imagine your body processing it 365 days, 3 meals a day. I don't think the body is designed for that, just take a look at everything is added as ingredient. Even the cows are fed with grains when they should be eating grass.
Besides, is not like I lose something. I don't see or taste the difference between gluten free bread and normal bread. But it mean a whole world for people that actually need these things. If the issue is the price, then I just stick to my regular with gluten bread that I can still eat until I can't.

That Non Celica sounds like me but heck Im 45 yrs old an Ive had stomach issues, nail problems, my back an hands itch uncontrollably. I have I know an issue with Diary. I can only have a little or Im sick on the potty with my stomach tore up. The uncontrollable itching is really bad this last year. So how would I go about figuring out if this is some of my issues? Ive got reflux so bad right now its horrible. Live on anti acids, Pepto, an ever prescription stomach meds. Id love to finally feel better but not sure if will ever happen.

Funny, in Mexico we eat bread like we drink water and we are a ok!
I don't deny there is people with actual diseases that prevents them from consuming gluten. but the way all that people reject it when they don't even suffer the symptoms just makes it look like they are the kind of people that also believe in flat earth, reject vaccines and wear tinfoil hats.

Can anyone tell me any thoughts on why gluten gives me heart arrhythmias? My gut is perfect eating gluten but my heart can't handle it. I tested negative for celiac but positive for gluten sensitivity. Even the cardiologists are stumped as to why gluten makes my heart freak out. I welcome any thoughts! Thanks! ;-)

For people who suffer from 'wheat intolerance' (and perhaps IBS, I suggest reading and learning about FODMAP and low fodmap diet.
It gives excellent guidelines for reducing gut symptoms. Mainly avoiding dairy, wheat, onions and garlic, along with lentils and some fruits and veggies.

I feel sorry for people with celiac disease that are running out of basic products during the lockdown while idiots that don't really need gluten-free foods accumulate them just to feel special and be trendy.
reply

It's also a modern desease because of the nocebo effect and the huge alarm made by the food industry. In the past, no one had these problems. It was good enough having some bread to eat!

I don't have celiac disease or a wheat allergy but I experience some symptoms (only sometimes not all the time)
How do I confirm if I really have non-celiac gluten sensitivity?
