What about an ethnic diet? I know that in the 4 Corners the docs have found
that folks with diabetes that return to a lamb, corn, bean and squash based
diet and got rid of the wheat, beef and sugar diet stopped needing insulin
and lost a lot of weight.

Of course, that could present a problem if one is a total American (mutt
<g>) and doesn't lean toward any particular limb on their family tree.

Yup. I was actually allergic to Wheat as a kid. It would stuff me up
and sometimes give me hives if I ate something 'whole wheaty'. I could
eat white bread, but no more than a sandwich a day. I could eat pasta,
but not if I had had a sandwich..you get the idea. I was also allergic
to chocolate, citrus, and a lot of environmental allergens. I was
taking prescription anti-histamines daily when I was four...
I 'outgrew' most of my food allergies by the time I was 15 or 16, but
interestingly, it was about that time that I began having auto-immune
disease issues. Coincidence?
