    If you think your actually Gluten Intolerant or that you have Celiac Disease (which are not necessarily the same thing), then be very careful and do your research. Ezekial Bread or Spelt pasta for instance are not gluten free..... Things can be "wheat free" without being "gluten free". Gluten free means no wheat, rye, oats (unless certified GF), or barley. This also includes any derivitives of those, as well as cross-contamination.

    Edited to add: Eating gluten free won't harm you as long as you get your required nutrients. Be careful with pre-packaged GF stuff though as they can be high in starches. Also, just an FYI since I know you don't want to wait for insurance to get tested.....but if you go GF and then get tested it will not be accurate.
