I don't think it's the gluten that is a problem, it's all the alcohol that happened to be along side the gluten. :biggrin:
I've quite the tolerance for alcohol. One beer caused two days worth of migraines,
brain fog and was debilitating to a degree I considered going to the hospital. I'd long gotten hangovers from beer that in my opinion were far worse than they should have been, but I just chalked that up to a side effect of getting older.
Everyone is all of a sudden allergic to Gluten now.
I'm against the fad as much as anyone, but the results of changing my diet cannot be overstated. No more brain fog, ability to sleep through the night (first time in probably 15+ years), easier weight loss, better at my job with more focus, severe digestive issues that all but disappeared... and more. I know within :30 seconds if I've accidentally had gluten. Pressure in the temples, migraine starts, creeps towards the front and keeping my vision focused starts to become difficult.
So I stand by my original point: an outsized hangover-like reaction to a small amount of beer could potentially be a sign of something other than a hangover.
