Scarlioni, have you read the recently published work called "Wheat Belly" by Dr. David Williams? In it, he suggests that removal of grains that have gluten in them may be the
way to heal irritable bowel syndrome. (One can always substitute nuts, seeds, and
green vegetables for the amino acids missing when wheat, barley, and rye are removed
from the diet.)

If I were suffering with that, I think I would risk giving up grains for 30 days to see
if it helped. You should notice remarkable improvement by that time, and it really
isn't difficult to do to give up grains...just subsitute whole grain rice if you feel you
need that carbohydrate in your diet.

I hope it will work for you. Dr. Williams seems to think that the more research that
becomes available, the worse it looks for humans to ingest grains with gluten. (It
all has to do with the re-engineering of grain to provide 3rd world countries with a
higher yield grain product, and it's playing havoc with some people's digestive and
brain systems.

Take care.
