I think “mild” was the intended word. Keyboard typo.

As a child we ate goods made from flour (wheat) no problems however about ten years ago I started having problems with my stomach, rolling around after every meal and screaming in agony. I stopped buying flour when I found out that our stomachs can not break down this form of wheat. A few days ago I found an online store that sold Kamut, and only ten minutes ago I made tortillas, took about 5 mouth fulls and straight away I felt like I was choking and got nausea’s, I ran to the bathroom and vomited like crazy. The whole thing was really slimy looking and now I feel a bit better but still my stomach is unsettled. I can’t believe it…what the hell? I really believe that we are not suppose to eat wheat products. The man who changed our wheat back in the 60’s had good intentions but he created a monster, frankenwheat. I am going to make up some camomile tea to try to settle my stomach. I had to throw the totillas in the bin. That was such a fast reaction, unbelievable and painful.

I agree that Kamut is a bit different from wheat, and may suit some people who are wheat-intolerant.
Celiacs be warned: Kamut contains gluten!

I read about kamut tried one piece no reaction, couple of days later had a couple of pieces – great, then had a bowl, absolutely no reaction – I can’t even drink vodka thats been made on wheat so to me this is amazing, I won’t eat it often but once a month or so maybe and thats great for me, so if you’re wheat intolerant perhaps try how I did – good luck.

I thought it would be great and try it but it was a scary situation for me.

Sounds like you’re taking the right approach, eat what you can and rotate your diet often.

Yet I eat a lot of organic whole grain kamut and spelt with no problem. I rotate foods as much as possible every 3 days. I have so few “safe” foods left and am amazed I tolerate them so well. AGAIN although I have a LONG list of allergies…I am not gluten sensitive. BUT I CANNOT EAT WHEAT,OAT,MILLET,QUINOA,….I use to eat millet and quinoa but became allergic.

I’ve always suspected that it’s not the gluten that I’m sensitive to, but something else – perhaps, even, the chemicals used on wheat fields. I’ll never really know so I just avoid wheat.

Interesting.
What I’m really interested to know is: if he cuts out wheat, rice, barley and millet, does he feel better after some time (could take a few weeks or even months)?

We have exhausted every FDA approved test possible without any confirmed results. He does not have Celiac disease, but there is no test for gluten.

Recently I decided to have a Mediator Release blood test (MRT®) performed on my son. In the grain family, this test check for the following food sensitivities:

Kamut, Corn, Spelt, Buckwheat, Quinoa, Oat, Amaranth, Millet,
Barley, Rice, Wheat

We just received the result back and found that my son is extremely sensitive to Wheat and Rice and mildly sensitive to Barley and Millet.

Strangely enough, he had almost no reaction to Kamut Wheat. I just thought i’d pass this information along.
