Carbs!
It's difficult not to get too excited too quickly, but this week has been my best week in ages. It began on Monday, Tuesday... Years ago, I had thought I might be gluten-intolerant, maybe have Caeliac's disease or something. However, all the tests ruled that out, and I've never really found any relief in gluten-free products. But I've never, ever questioned the category generally of carbs. Until now. In my previous post I began to sketch why the FODMAP process can be unhelpful, the big realisation being that cheese, no matter how little lactose it has left in it, has just the same impact on Casein intolerances (I have a detailed post about this in my drafts, coming soon). Since then, and on the plus side, I have noticed that apple purée appears ok and so do cooked onion and garlic. I can also generally eat more fruit than the FODMAP diet advises. Perhaps I'll be able to reintroduce later, but I'm currently down to a tiny sprinkle of carbs at some meals
