The Jury Is Still Out on Gluten

Today was my third day of reintroducing Gluten into my diet.  The first meal on the first day didn't set well on my stomach and I thought for sure it was going to be permanently out of my diet.  I tried again the second day and didn't have any stomach issues.  Then, again today, I had no stomach issues.  The only side effect has been my energy level is at ZERO.  I have done nothing but sleep for the past two days and nights.

I guess the conclusion I have come to is this, I can eat Gluten if I have the time to sleep it off for a day or so.  I think I will mostly try to avoid it.  This will be one of those foods that gets grouped with corn, peanuts, and sweeteners.  I will eat it in extreme moderation.
