So I 've been considering limiting my intake of gluten daily. I'm not sure I have the desire to go completely wheat free at this point but a moderation is called for!
Elimination Diet
As a simple test I will eliminate wheat products from my diet for the one week (this generally means all regular cereals, breads, pastas, bakery items, etc.) and observe my body's reaction.
Before starting, I will try to write down what symptoms I think I have ~ tiredness, carb cravings, IBS symptoms, acid reflux and maybe crankiness (just a touch).
Products to avoid this week:
Bran
Bread
Breading, coating mixes
Cereals (Wheat Based)
Couscous
Croutons
Granola
Farina
Flour
Pasta
Pastry
Pizza
Semolina
Soy sauce
Spelt
Teriyaki sauce
If eliminating these products grants me relief from the above symptoms than I will limit my daily intake of gluten and have at least one day a week gluten free.
Here we go! I will update you in a week to see how this went!
