>> Attend to gut health.
> In all honesty, last time I removed wheat, my gut problems pretty much resolved themselves completely. I've noticed the last two days, this seems to be the case again.
Average people actually have 3 separate gut problems, and removing wheat merely removes a major gut antagonist; it doesn't automatically fix all 3, which are:
1. intestinal damage / leaky gut
2. lack of beneficial gut bacteria (the bugs)
3. lack of bug food (prebiotic fiber)
You need to do 2&3 to fix #1.
>> Endocrine issues, esp. thyroid,
> This is where I'm in luck! I've had thyroid tests already, …
Did they test just the mostly-meaningless TSH (for which “normal” is usually still too high), or did you get numbers for Free T3, Free T4 and Reverse T3?
> what I've had in the last 24 hours: Bacon, eggs, banana, tea.
If the banana was ripe, it was 50% of your whole day's net carb budget.
> Peanuts, brie, tea.
How much peanut? Being a legume, it is higher in net carb than actual nuts.
> Curry: chicken, spinach, mushrooms, pasata, garlic, chilies, coriander, cumin, etc. (homemade), pilau rice, tea.
Is that pasata or pasta?
Pasta is of course usually wheat.
How much rice?
It's pretty high glycemic, contains wheat germ agglutinin (a nasty lectin first found in wheat), and is at some risk of arsenic contamination, whose immediate and long term health effects are uncertain.
