I was diagnosed with Celiac, last year, after 22 years of suffering since no doc could figure what's wrong. Eating gluten filled foods foods made me sleepy, and behave exactly like any ADHD adult. I'm an avid cyclist. My performance/endurance jumped about 40% since I went gluten free. I really miss Pizza and sour beers :(

If you miss pizza, get a copy of the book American Pie, a few boxes of King Arthur Gluten Free flour, and a pizza stone. You'll thank me. My GF restricted wife does.

  My wife is gluten intolerant, but we also enjoy chebe as a pizza crust. Just an alternate idea. We have found quite satisfying, gluten-free alternatives to almost everything that she wants. Haven't quite cracked the doughnut, so if anyone has ideas...

    The Top Pot doughnut cookbook has a recipe for GF doughnuts, but I haven't tried it yet.

If you're on the west coast, you need to hunt out this beer called Omission: http://omissionbeer.com/ http://omissionbeer.com/ They use some kind of magic to take the gluten out of real beer, so it tastes like a proper beer, not that sour sorghum stuff. Fantastic! Pale ale is the best but the lager is pretty decent too.

  It's not entirely gluten-free. I can drink a little, but not a ton of it, which sucks because I miss real beer. Here's the disclaimer on their website: Product fermented from grains containing gluten and crafted to remove gluten. The gluten content of this product cannot be verified, and this product may contain gluten. I've found it at nearly every co-op and Whole Foods in Seattle, btw.

Really? Because for most people with celiacs, eating gluten makes them want to curl up in a ball and die, not sleep and have dotty attention.
