she might have a wheat allergy where she CANT eat those things
kinda sounds like she isnt eating carbs. not sure why tho. but if she works out yet cant when she is sick she might not want to gain weight during that time she is not exercising. carbs give u energy and ur immune system energy to fight the illness
sounds like celiac desease (not sure if that’s spelled right, but I think so). My sister-in-law has it. There are loads of websites on it. just google it.
celiac disease, inborn disease. grains have gluten in it so shes not allowed to have any. For us, grains are beneficial but for your friend its not.
she could have celiac disease. Here are a couple of sites that might help you and her.
Buckwheat does NOT have gluten in it.
If she has celiac disease, eating foods with gluten in them will cause her to be very sick. Gluten is the protein found in grains like wheat, rye, barley, and oats, and products made with these grains. Someone with celiac disease is intolerant to gluten. It is a disease, a genetic disorder, NOT a case of not wanting to eat carbs.
Here is a good resource for information:
I avoid wheat like the plague due not to celiac disease, but to an allergy to wheat (two different things). I, too, am ill for a long time when I become ill. Grains themselves don’t boost the immune system, but remember that ‘enriched’ flour means that they have vitamins in them. I take vitamins to replace what is not in my food. Buckwheat has no gluten on its own. If you add yeast, that’s a totally different story.
