Adventures in gluten free, dairy free, vegetarian living

Who Is Sam

A few years ago I was pretty much permanently sick - coughing up my lungs every day, no energy, and incredibly interrupted sleep.  I was having asthma attacks every ten minutes, panic attacks lasting a few hours at least once a week (often more), and was suffering stress on my heart, among other things.

After seeing a variety of specialists, I finally got some answers - I am highly allergic to casein (one of the proteins in dairy) and have coeliacs disease (i.e. severely gluten intolerant).  I also eat predominantly vegetarian (only eating meat when out and there are no GF/CF options).

Other allergies are milder, but I also avoid sulfates, sulfites, preservatives, artificial colourings (though red food colouring is FUN), MSG, and fish.

As a result, the question I am now asked is... So, what can you eat?

This blog is my answer to that question.
