gluten free?

Question

Not sure if this is the right place for this but has anyone with pcos tried going gluten free? I have pretty bad hormone acne and nothing seems to help it. I found a few articles that say that anyone with pcos should avoid gluten because it can cause infmalation and your body is already inflamed from the pcos. Also if you are gluten free are you dairy free as well? It seems like if someone is gluten free they're also dairy free or at least reduced.

Answer

Yep and it is the only thing that has ever made a drastic difference in how i feel. I didn't go gluten free - i went wheat free (just so happens that glutenfree foods dont have wheat).  So i still ate things that may have had gluten in it (like soy sauce etc).  I substituted recipes with rice flour - which takes a bit of getting used to but is a much better gravy thickener :)

It takes about 3 days to get past crazy food cravings but it's worth it.  When i avoid wheat i feel amazing and actually have some energy.

Answer

I am gluten free. I only drink organic milk. But this time I'm trying to cut dairy out. So hopefully it works.
