99% of folks who say they have wheat and milk allergies are full of cr**. It's called a fad....

It's like how many kids actually have ADHD...

The symptoms of wheat gluten allergy are INTENSE AND FREQUENT bouts of diarrhea. They stop when you remove wheat, barley and rye from your diet.

More detailed analysis shows that the T-cells have attacked and killed your villae in your small intestine ~ and they take 3 days to grow back. Secondary symptoms are ~ well, they are just too numerous to list.

The condition is very real. The cure is very simple.

Lactose intolerance is pretty easy to diagnose. Once saw a Korean kid bite into a hamburger which had a dried milk byproduct in its make up ~ took a few seconds after it hit his stomach and he projectile vomited it from one side of the campfire to the other.

It's a natural process ~ you should stop making lactase about the age of 6 ~ unless you have a mutation that allows you to continue producing lactase ~ that's an enzyme you need to digest milk. You need it 'cause if you don't have it the flora and fauna in your intestinal tract will do the job for you and produce IMMENSE volumes of gas ~ HUGE IMMENSE volumes ~ GINORMOUS even!

Yup, same as Placebo effect where a very high percentage of people are cured for no apparent reason. Mind over matter, that is where the truth lies. Lays. :)

I am lactose sensitive and i was before it was cool (its not really cool), but the wheat allergies kill me, my uncle and cousin both have celiac disease that almost killed them before doctors found out what it was. I work retail that sells alot of packaged food products. Every day now I get someone asking if our products are gluten free because they have an allergy. The commonality among these people are that they are fat, gluten allergies generally disrupt the uptake of nutrients, ie you starve to death. You need to do more push aways, not blame it on an “allergy”
