I"m not 'allergic'. There's a difference in allergies and
sensitivity. I don't do will with wheat. My body doesn't seem to
like it much at all. I have intestinal upset, joint pain and runny
sinuses when I eat wheat, plus I just don't feel well when I eat it.

I don't get itchy eyes or sneezing or other allergy symptoms and I'm
not a celiac, but there is definitely something going on with wheat
and a lot of people are finding out how much better they feel when
they DON'T eat it.
