My experience is that I don't "react" to glutens as far as pain.  My
reactivity is that my blood sugars rise quickly and stay elevated much
longer when I eat them.  I also experience delayed gastric emptying from
glutens.  So the reactivity can happen in a variety of ways.

 

I'd like some support also, because the various diets out there except
for Atkins recommend that the diet be grain intensive, and I can't
manage that.  I don't metabolize most kinds of fibers well either.

 

I'm curious what supplements folks are using to lower blood sugars and
how successful they are.

I have been one for about 10 years now and my blood sugar runs high.
Rice is very high in carbs.  I am trying to control my sugar with herbs
I got from my acupuncture. I'll let you know if they work.

 

My problem seems to be wheat as I can eat other glutens without any
pain.

When I eat wheat the pain is awful.
