Janet,

no, you are not automatically gluten free if you avoid wheat foods. Wheat is used in making beer and gluten for clarifying wine. Those more knowledgable on gluten free eating may know of other sources.

So testing for gluten intolerance would curtail drinking habits - a high price to pay for science! The LSD is much easier methinks. And as for the timing of your onset of lactose intolerance ..... I haven't got a clue.
