AND the big fat spread behind me! Very frustrating. It's just gravity, man. The food we eat these days, the fact that we don't walk/run/hunt and gather the way we used to, even as recently as when we were children. Plus the food we eat here in the states... wheat, lots of carbs, lots of corn and corn syrup, white rice, barley sweetener, etc, not to mention the sodas and coffees full of sugar. That wheat flour is vitamin-fortified, and in many ways has made the general population both healthier for the fortification and perhaps unhealthier for it's main ingredients. The gluten in wheat, barley, rye, and sometimes oats can cause extreme weight gain or loss if one is gluten-intolerant. The inability to digest gluten can also cause similar symptoms to ulcers, irritable bowel syndrome, even a similarity to Crohn's disease. Ask your doctor if you could have a simple blood test for it, but DON'T stop eating bread before the test. You have to give your body the chance to build the antibodies if you have it. Otherwise, you'd have to have the the much more expensive intestinal biopsy. Of course, you could just do the easy and sensible thing: lay off all gluten coming from wheat, barley, rye, and oats and any of their by-products. It takes a while to adjust, but if your stomach was hurting before, you'll probably feel better with a few days.leadstoryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05023828958883212628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15417436.post-37958282613372282782010-07-06T20:21:44.598-05:002010-07-06T20:21:44.598-05:00I love the folk song quote about the apron!
