Ironically, after all the back-and-forth on the listserve about the
studpidity of unneccessary gluten challenges, I just did one by mistake.

I bought vitamins, carefully checked the fillers, and completely missed
the barley protein in the active ingredients!  Well, I found it a few
hours after the first pill.  I'd actually been having digestive troubles
and wondering if it was gluten contamination - no.  Now I remember.  The
abdominal pain of gluten is nasty, but my real problem is the inability
to remain still and awake at the same time.

So, a quick question in this rambling post.  My Monday midday class is
dull and long, and I often have trouble staying awake in it - and the
trouble is worse as class goes on.  Other students are eating lunch
throughout class, and I'm sure several courses of gluten-laced breakfasts
were eaten in the room before that.  It feels like gluten rather than
boredom.  Any ideas of how to protect myself from this kind of
environmental gluten?  Thanks.
