Re: Wheat intolerance

I hope that you are adjusting to the new diet well! It can be challenging at first, but I have found it to be a blessing in disguise - causing me to take a closer look at what I eat and branch out into trying new foods and cuisines! Have you been experimenting with different types of grains? Some of my personal favorites: millet, quinoa, amaranth, teff, wild rice.
There are a ton of great gluten-free cookbooks out there. I really like "The Gluten-Free Gourmet" series, as well as "Flying Apron's Gluten-Free and Vegan Baking Book" for delicious breads, cakes, cookies, and other treats.
Another really helpful resource is Dr. Wangen's book "Healthier Without Wheat." This book really helped me with clarifying the information behind wheat and gluten intolerances. You might also check out www.innatehealthfoundation.org and www.IBS treatmentcenter.com for further information.

I hope this helps!

Re: Wheat intolerance

Thanks for that Kathryn and welcome to the forums.  I think I am adjusting to the new diet quite well - in fact finding it does me a lot of good.  I dont have any wheat free cookbooks - so thanks for that.  Are you, yoursel, wheat free?

My biggest challenge was when I was on holiday recently in the US but actuallly managed fine.

Thanks for that smile
