I have a sensitivity to wheat. I get skin issues (dry skin, cracked finger tips in the winter, razor burn, and itchy scalp/dandruff) when I eat grains, esp wheat. Didn’t notice it until I went paleo/primal a few years ago and a lot of thes symptoms which had become ‘normal’ for me went away and I noticed the difference in about a month. I’m not strict about the primal like I used to be, and I can tell it. One of the weirder things I noticed was an itchy/ burning feeling in my thumb pad muscle next to my palm when I would slip off diet for a few days. I also noticed a marked decrease in joint pain. Eating primal takes a constant effort, and complacency has gotten the best of me. New Years is just around the corner, though... Since this is a shaving forum I’ll repeat: I see a complete lack of razor burn and ingrown hairs when I stay grain free.
