Very interesting about protein in wheat that will give inflammation.

Thank you very much Mary!

Wow. I've been trying to go gluten free for the past few months. Slip up on a rare occasion.

Thank you(!) for posting this (btw, my doctor did some tests for celiac...I was negative...but as this article and many point out, one can still be gluten sensitive).

I was also negative at a test my Rheumatologist did but do not feel good when eating wheat bread. I am not completely gluten free but will look in to it more now.

Keep well annabettina!

Very interesting article. I have recently gone back to eating wheat cereals for breakfast after a period of abstinance. Limb/joint pain and headaches normally associated with my APS seem to have returned after a period when they seemed more managable, which coincides with the period when I wasn't eating much cereal. I will now go back to leaving wheat out as much as possible from my diet and see where that gets me!

Thanks

Neil

I second that experience and determination. So many foods contain gluten!
