Hi There

I just wanted to ask how many of you know someone following a gluten free diet but aren't celiacs?

I suspect I may be wheat sensitive or what ever is the correct term for it these days.

Just curious what health benefits were noticed by non-celiacs who tried the diet?
I have various symptoms such as:
hand tremors
muscle twitching
fatigue
weakness
and dizziness.
dry skin (eczema)
constant food cravings
and
heartburn/indigestion

I've only been on this diet for 3 days and already I've noticed some benefits such as:
less tremors
very little to no food cravings
etc....
and less bloating
PLUS!!! I've lost 3 lbs and I'm not cutting back on food at all intentionally but I've noticed my appetite has decreased. (very impressed with this part).
I'm going to the doctor (today) to see if I need any testing or anything. The reason I tried this diet is b/c I have several symptoms of MS and I read somewhere that this diet can help it.
Aside from that does anyone have advice or comments for me?
