      It's a pretty standard binding/thickening agent

      You'll also find it in almost all pills. Many candies too. Altoids immediately springs to mind

      I know violence is not the answer, I got it wrong on purpose

          Sick of exam revision, feel like my eyes are going to pop. Hoping that IH-UK receives a stock tomorrow and I'll get some new denim this week to cheer me up.

          Bah humbug. Sunday night studying.

                I have slowly become convinced that gluten is killing me, since going onto the Whole 30 diet I feel like a different guy, much stronger, more energy, more alert. Fuck gluten and fuck processed shit foods (apart from beer).

                  Nice to see you survived the detox period.  You seemed edgy for a while. 🙂

                      Gluten free here since last summer - love it, in the best shape I've ever been - no thoughts of going back.

                        Thanks guys, the difference is amazing as I really felt like utter shit most of the time before this. As some of you know I suffered with nerve issues on my left side (numbness and tingling), random headaches and stomach complaints, and even lost my vision once. Doctors considered whether I had MS, I had an MRI scan, blood work, and it all came back clear but the issues just rumbled on.

                        For the first week of the Whole 30 I felt worse than ever, absolutely awful, then I woke up one morning full of energy, and slowly since my senses and body have improved to the point where I feel almost perfectly fine. I have two weeks to go, and when it ends I do intend to celebrate with a few beers, but from then on I will be gluten free*.

                        • except in Japan, where I have no idea how to say "is that gluten free?".

                              Paleo lifestyle since 2011. Has made me (fairly healthly previously) better and my aging parents have experienced great benefit from it. Has helped a friend of mine with Crohn's out a lot too.

                              Food should only benefit you!

                                Okay, I'm now really curious about the Paleo diet with all of these enthusiastic endorsements.  I also consider my diet to be pretty healthy, but this sounds like the next step.  If anyone has some good reading material they can easily direct me to, I would really appreciate it.

                                  Rafa, if you ever experience issues with your stomach, digestion, or nerve problems, then giving this a go can only help.

                                          As someone who has great troubles with gluten (been hospitalised for it twice), I had no problems in Japan. I've been eating GF for around 4-5 years for the most part. I very occasionally (once a month?) eat a small slice of bread at social functions and feel it like shit. I feel/know what's right for me to eat instinctually now. If you keep it up your body will become attuned to what works for it. You can already tell your sensitivities, when you stay clear for a longer time, even a small hit sends of large alarm bells.

                                            feck it, I'll rant on food/body 😉

                                            I'm a vegetarian who's both lactose and gluten intolerant. I can eat meat, but it doesn't sit well in my stomach and always made me feel heavy/dull. I've developed the intolerances in my mid-late 20's. :|
