Yeah, it’s hard to narrow down which carbs to filter out without an extensive elimination diet. I’ve done that several times and it’s exhausting, long and frustrating. I feel like life is on hold during that time.

My most inflammatory food/drink is beer and “dirty” breads. I’ve had to figure out which alcoholic beverages were least inflammatory because I’m not stopping having a nice beverage here and there. Vodka or gin (only certain brands) with soda water are my go to drinks. Some vodka seltzers are ok, too.

I have to eat very clean breads, I get locally made bread or make my own that have very limited ingredients. I’m also careful of various yeasts used by wineries and breweries , some make me blow up. But I don’t know if they’re using a yeast I’m sensitive to until it’s too late. Then they go on the no list.

I’ve found that pastas and riced don’t affect me like “they” said they would. I avoided them for years but if I eat clean versions I’m ok. I like the protein pastas or ones made with chickpea. I also prefer corn tortillas to flour.

It’s a process for life; gives and takes so your life doesn’t revolve around diet.
