A friend told me about inulin. http://allergies.about.com/cs/inulin/a/aa051500a.htm Sources of Inulin Examples of natural-occurring sources of inulin include: <http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/XJ&sdn=allergies&zu=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.encyclopedia.com%2Fhtml%2Fa%2Fasparagu.asp>Asparagus <http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/XJ&sdn=allergies&zu=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.encyclopedia.com%2Fhtml%2Fb1%2Fbanana.asp>Banana <http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/XJ&sdn=allergies&zu=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.encyclopedia.com%2Fhtml%2Fc1%2Fchicory.asp>Chicory Garlic Leek <http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/XJ&sdn=allergies&zu=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.encyclopedia.com%2Fhtml%2FJ%2FJerusal-ar.asp>Jerusalem Artichoke <http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/XJ&sdn=allergies&zu=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.encyclopedia.com%2Fhtml%2Fo%2Fonion.asp>Onion Salisfy <http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/XJ&sdn=allergies&zu=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.encyclopedia.com%2Fhtml%2Fw%2Fwheat.asp>Wheat I have stopped eating these foods and my itchiness went away and my arthritis pain is subsiding! Apparently those who are gluten intolerant can be inulin intolerant too. Echinacea, which is high in inulin, has not been recommended for celiacs. I would like to know what other foods contain inulin so I can avoid it. Paleobest, Susan
