Diagnosed with Wheat Allergy

>lived at least 18 years eating half their calories worth of wheat products
>was just fine
>now I have an allergy
nah cunt

Other grains like millet, corn, rice, barley, etc should suffice. You could load up on potatoes too I guess

>unable to eat bread and pasta

I would genuinely kill myself desu

You can subsist on other grains I guess but what's the point?

you can always make pasta with other stuff, i personally suck at it but i've had non-wheat pasta that was great, spinach or some shit in it, not entirely sure.

You're probably just allergic to the synthetic chemicals they add to the bread.
Try unenriched wheat products with an epipen ready, you may yet recover. Most of our population is allergic to b "vitamins" resulting in hypertension, flushing and tachycardia on a daily basis. But that doesn't stop them from adding the garbage to all your food.

So what you're saying is you have no clue, but your doctors have suggested trying to eliminate certain things in your diet even though their tests haven't determined anything, just on the off chance that it might have an effect.

I had blood work done last week and my RAST for wheat allergies is 20 kU/ L which puts it as a class 4 allergy.
Seems mild considering it was over 100 kU/L for tree nuts which I already knew I react to with anaphylaxis.
False positives are common with allergy tests, but everything else seemed about right (bad reactions to tree nuts, dust mites, cat/dog dander, certain tree pollens)
sidenote: apparently sesame allergies are super common nowadays and appear with tree nut allergies?

Anyone who has a real allergy usually spends their entire, short life at the hospital, the hospital's morgue or dumpster/wooded area nearby. If it's not that severe, deal with it.

desu if your diet is that carb-dense, a wheat-free diet will make you a fat fuck in no time. A 4oz portion of whole wheat bread has something like 100-120 kcal, put a 4oz portion of gluten free rubber bread the size of the palm of your hand will sit more around 170kcal because it's made with corn, rice, cassava and potatoes. also wheat-free substitution foods are expensive as hell because gluten is a meme. start eating protein, like chicken and beans, and dairy if you can, like full-fat yoghurt and cottage cheese. eat salad and tinned fish. thicken gravies and stews with cornstarch instead of roux or flour. eating will become a chore before it becomes enjoyable again, amd you might lose weight, but once wheat has been removed from your routine for a few months, bread and pasta will look about as edible as a bowl of marbles or a tube of lipstick.

Damn I am really sorry for you. As a Korean, when I lived in America for about 6 months (a really small farm town in Pennsylvania), there was no rice and I became insane. No joke.

When I had rice for the first time in 6 months I nearly cried. Really tells how much a grain is part of your life.

bread is made from many grains other than wheat, rye is a common choice (almost as common as wheat where I'm at)
pasta can also be made of different grains, rye pasta is a bit more rare though it certainly exists

>"diagnosed" gluten allergy
Hey man you don't have to lie. You're either trying to get some dumb bitch pussy or you're a raging faggot. Probably both.

Gabagool, of course

Hory chit I didn't expect you to take me seriously. You're just going to have to bite the bullet and shop with the other freaks and fad-mongers in the gluten-free sections and online.
Get into starchy vegetables like potatoes, turnips, parsnips, yams, sweet potatoes, squash, and eggplant.
There are plenty of other grains you can eat, too, unfortunately not as versatile as wheat, but varying them up should help with the loss of normal pasta and bread.

Become a hunter-gatherer, and eat only fruit and meat (preferably from animals you hunt and kill). If you eat something poisonous and die, you did it wrong.

m8 a wheat allergy is different from gluten intolerance

You're JUST American.

Other more specialist sites could probably give better suggestions.

Isn't depriving Asians of rice in foreign countries the kind of thing wars are started over?

Op you are a genetic fuck up. Kys now and do not reproduce.

Celeac here.
Oats, gluten free pastas, gluten free bread and quinoa are your friends. So are vegetables and potatoes. Make some wheat free gnocchi. Eat wholegrain rice. Make some buckwheat bread. Find some wheat free pasta. Things that are gluten free are wheat free 99% of the time. Once you find your alternatives it will be easy, I've been diagnosed for about 3 months now and Im eating all the meals I had before, with wheat free adaptations and no restrictions other than not being able to have take out. You'll get the hang of it eventually. Use it as an opportunity to eat healthier foods.

Protip- always check the labels of dried legumes - for some fucking reason a lot of the dried beans in my country aren't suitable for wheat allergy/celeac because of something to do with the drying process. Slipped up a few times from that.
