how did wheat give you skin problems?
As I'm not a biochemist or even a dermatologist I have no idea about the 'how' of it. But I used to have extremely dry and flaky skin. Between my shoulder blades was the worst; I was constantly scratching my back against walls and door posts becuase of non-stop itching. The skin looked like a lizard's, all scaly. Not peeling, just thick, dry and scaly. After two months of eating mostly wheat free (I never eat it at home, but work lunches and work dinners it's hard to avoid) the skin was normal again. And the wheat was replaced with other carbs (mostly rice and potatoes), so it wasn't a drop in carbs that caused it.
