Ok this is a legit question. I have not had "white" carbs in a long while and today I had Taco Bell. I had the Fresco chicken soft taco. Not too long after that my stomach got really sore and bloated. Could it be from the tortillas? Everything else on there was just lettuce, tomato and chicken. Is my stomach more sensitive to white carbs now or is it just a fluke thing? I have drank nothing but water today so I know its not from pop or anything. Thanks.

    It could be the sodium and the water.

    Probably. I've been grain free for about 3 months. I cheated last week and had a flatbread pizza. I felt like you could have stuck a pin in me and deflated me like a balloon. So uncomfortable.

    I WISH it would clear me out like Metamucil.

    Probably gluten intolerant!

    I have also had this problem for many many years. Some tortillias have a clumping agent they put in cat litter, so get the ones that are whole wheat and ingredients you are familular with. Also discovered that it could be the spices in the hamburger or on the chicken.
