I know of two folks that have it. They become creative cooks.
and they get healthy when they stay away from the offending foods.
Mimi- do they have Celiac or Crohn's?
I do the Celiac fandango, which is the dance to avoid wheat, oats, barley, and rye. Not too hard to do, once you figure it out; but I'm a bad Celiacker, in that I still drink the occaisional beer. (and pay for it later!) Tell your wheat-avoiding friends that there are at least 2 wheat-free restaurants in my end of Seattle: The Flying Apron (U District) and the DaVinci Cafe (Greenwood).
oops. sorry for the thread hijack.
LBTC - I dunno about repressed emotions, but I know my gut goes absolutely nuts when I am stressed either physically or emotionally. Whether I've eaten wheat or not. (Caught a cold? Whoops, here goes the Celiac. Broke up with DPITA? Whoops, Celiac city!)
