I have come to the realisation that bread and pastry ain’t my friends and limiting them really does benefit me.
I had incredible back pain earlier this week and not feeling sluggish because of bread made recovery a lot quicker.
I’ll still dabble occasionally but yeah I’ve had enough of feeling shit.

I like rye bread but you can fuck off with your pumpernickel.

yeah, I’m reducing bread too, even home made bread

I’ve been experimenting with spelt flour, doing a 50/50 with white wheat flour and it’s not bad.

If you can be fucked with specifics there’s the FODMAP routine to test dietary intolerances but it’s a bit of a drag, moreso if you’re eating with the family.

Nah I can’t be fucked. I’ve done my own experiments. For some reason toast doesn’t bother me but “raw” bread does. I feel on top of the world when I don’t eat much of it.
I know it’s not the butter because I slather that on toast. Pizza makes me feel shit almost immediately and the next day too.
It could be the yeast.

Commercial yeast is a trigger for my gut. Its used because it’s cheap and gives consistent results, not because its good for you. I do make my own sourdough, and can cope with using normal white bread flour for that, and I’ve found that I can tolerate a little bit of the commercial white stuff if I preload in the day with some sourdough.

Yes. Yes!!!
If you get a piece of bread or bread roll and rip the crust off and squeeze it into a ball it’s almost dough again. That’s going in my gut and that’s why I feel shit and sluggish.

This.
Fodmap diets do suck. I restricted so many things and am still in pain. That said I’m a bit of a special case, there are plenty of things an otherwise normal person can still have.
