    so i had a few pieces of chicken last night- just two bites really was all i could handle mentally. i didnt get any weird stomach aches so thats good. i guess ill slowly just increase it to three bites and then four bites- it tastes so weird!!

    Hi We have an outbreak of chicken pox where i work (and scabies as well). i had chicken pox as a kid. can i get it again? i read that if you have an autoimmune disease you are more suseptable and then you could get shingles? i'm waiting to hear back from my dr but was wondering if anyone knew about this? thanks Jess

    thanks guys! i havent gotten sick yet. i was worried that if i touched my hair and then ate it would transfer the wheat but maybe thats a bit paranoid!!! i dont have DH either and my scalp did not get irritated at all.

    So lately ive been making an effort to use products with no chemicals in them, so i bought a natural hair dye from whole foods. after i died it, i realized it had wheat in it. i usually check all products for gluten but for some reason totally forgot- is this really bad??? every time i touch my hair- which is all the time- do i have to run and wash my hands...
