The only way to find out is to cut out gluten for a couple of months (minimum) and see if it makes a difference. Many people have problems caused by gluten. Almost 1% of people have celiac disease for example. You may have symptoms but be so used to them that you don’t notice them anymore. But a gluten free diet does not necessarily help everyone. Give it your best shot. Don’t expect too much, but if it helps, that will be good news for you?
Stop by in a couple of months and let us know how it goes.

Hi Brenda,

Glad you’re noticing an improvement from cutting out gluten/wheat, milk and a few other things. It is a bit of an effort but well worth it. Hopefully your husband will grow to love the food you make for yourself so you do not have to cook twice per meal. There certainly isn’t any harm in him learning how to cook, and you can tell him another man said that!

Drop by and leave a comment with a progress report later on if you like.

Slowly I also started eliminating wheat (although it is almost impossible to find wheat free stuff), at least in the state where I am living now (San Antonio, TX) where healthy food is not promoted. The past two weeks I also eliminate aspartame and lactose from my diet and introduce myself to sweeteners like agave and to alternative milk like soy and/or coconut milk. I’m adapting very well to the change and I say I enjoy feeling better, don’t miss the greasy taste of any fast food, neither my food from back home (Puerto Rico). My biggest issue is to try to cook healthy meal from me and a totally different diet for my husband, not to mention that I travel 50 % of the time for work and it is quite an issue and a challenge to eat out.
Thanks for such a wonderful article and site.
