Bad reaction to pasta?

Question

I find that when I eat spaghetti, I feel extremely weak after wards and want to sleep for hours. I just ate some this afternoon -- one plateful -- and had to sleep afterwards. I woke up, and felt kind of delirious and confused. My stomach is very bloated and sore, still, two hours later.

Do you think is a sign of a wheat allergy? I do not have this reaction to bread, but only to pasta. I have tried cutting down on my portion size, but it seemed I still reacted.

thank you.

Answer 1

Pasta is a carb. Eating any carb makes you a/ sleepy and when you sleep during the day you wake up feeling doepy and confused.and b/it fills you up so you feel really bloated. I don't think you have a wheat allergy I think that you are eating too much pasta. The amount of bread you can eat in comparison to pasta is very different. The next time you make pasta measure the dry pasta this way only use as much pasta as you can comfortably fit in a circle made by touching your forefinger to the tip of your thumb. That is a amount you should be eating. Not any more. Plus don't eat a lot of bread or sauce with it. Eat it slowly and chew it thoroughly. I think you find it is much easier to digest and you won't get as sleepy.

Feeling bloated after you eat could be sign of celiac.........wheat allergies.

Pasta is a carb, carbs quickly turn to sugar........and when your sugar is high...............you will feel confused and sleepy.   I find that I cannot wake myself up.................when my sugar is high.
