  1. I inadvertantly solved this problem when I went completely grain-free. (Additionally it has helped my health and issues enormously). But, no one tries to make me anything at work anymore! I think people are stunned or confused or overwhelmed by the idea of eating without any grains. Also, most people seem to know someone who is following a paleo diet...
  2. The details are different, but this is exactly what I am dealing with lately too. I have also become a huge believer that a leaking gut can change everything up. For me, I think this explains why I am suddenly sensitive to so many things that were ok for the first 10 years of being gluten free. What have people done to successfully heal guts? ...
  3. Shauna, I think I learned more from your post than in several hours of searching the web. Sometimes careful notes just confuse me more! With 50 year old hormones and varying exercise schedules, it can sure get confusing. That's great that you have found a middle ground that works for you. I hope I can do the same.
  4. Thanks. I'll definitely keep the soy test in mind. I am just adding a little bit this week so will watch for any noticeable reactions. Soy was on the panel of 250 foods that I did and came back almost undetectably low. I should have had some exposure since I haven't really avoided soy - just didn't intentionally eat it. I know there has been some in...
  5. I'll add my thoughts to the chorus of those doing better without grains. Overall my energy level has improved, but it has taken significant effort to make that happen. It's been a hard adjustment after so many years of substituting with gluten free grains. But it seems that none of them agree with me anymore. I'm an athlete so have relied heavily on fruit...
  6. Thanks. It's great to hear from someone else who has successfully incorporated these ideas. I think I am struggling because I am not really convinced! I know how much better I feel when I avoid my huge list of problem foods, but I don't immediately see the difference in rotating. And it is SO different from how I usually eat (ruts and leftovers!). ...
  7. Hi, I am struggling to make sense of new information coming at me rapidly. I am loving feeling good for the first time in years so absolutely certain that I am onto something. But, I could use some quality resources and advice if anyone has similar experiences. I've been gluten-free for almost 10 years - great success until about 2 years ago when it...
  8. I just posted more details in the other allergy testing thread. But, I paid out of pocket for an extensive food panel by blood work. Best few hundred bucks I have spent in a long time! When combined with a modified elimination diet, it has guided me as I add foods back in and avoid others completely. I know enough about the pros/cons of these tests to...
  9. This is interesting to me as I finally did a full food panel just a few months ago. It was by far the best few hundred bucks I have spent on this journey. I have been gluten free for 10 years, but the last couple of years that hasn't been enough. I kept getting "glutened" even when I knew the chances of exposure were minimal. I suspected other foods...

    ARCHIVED Two Questions

    Thanks guys. That's interesting that other people's sensitivity changes as well over long periods of time. It's definitely not processed foods as I have a very clean diet. Nothing processed. Mostly organic. Almost no dairy. This year I've been experimenting with cutting back on soy and corn though that doesn't seem to make much difference. I suspect...
  11. Hi, First post, but I have learned a lot from reading. I've been gluten-free for nearly 10 years for self diagnosed issues. Since then both blood and saliva testing show extreme intolerance- though no celiac testing. I'm 49. In the last year it seems that I am WAY more sensitive to gluten as well as other foods. I used to be able to limit gluten attacks...
