Best gluten-free semi-"all purpose" flour?
We are starting a semi-paleo diet. I'm finding that gluten is not good for my stomach and I get sick when I eat more than a small serving of beans. We are allowing dairy and rice since I seem to have absolutely no issues with either of them. I am wondering what kind of flour those who have gone mostly paleo or gluten free…

Pain under ribs while exercising?
I've been doing the 30 day shred for 2 weeks. My joints hurt SO bad from this. Is this normal? Also I am doing a cardio dance work out.
