Just feel much better.

I'm not adverse to the notion that it is carbs, but the attacks by some people here are intolerant, that's for sure. Right now we are a society struggling with nutrition and people want honest answers and trust is at an all time low.
After 20 some years of eating breads I have noticed my skin flare up. Which is why I always say "wheat" intolerant, because that is when it happens. I was tested as a child and they found a "sensitivity" to it, and when I eat wheat, my skin, mostly my hands, bust out with 2-3mm cracks on the finger tips, and they bleed, and then both of my hands looks like Quasimodo. It usually takes a day or two. I've never said I was gluten intolerant to anyone, because I just don't know, but I do know my reactions to wheat itself. However, it is amazing how much sugar is in our foods and I wouldn't be surprised at the bodies auto-immune response to it. I'm blown away by the sugar additives since I started label reading.
