Being allergic to Gluten and an avid rider I have been eating Tinkanyada Pasta for years, and it is one of few that taste great and the texture doesnt send you into shock! There are some good products out there, as well as recipes……It is amazing how many companies are now making Gluten Free products. If you can get your hands on it, try Udi’s Gluten free Sandwich bread as well.

Have you looked into quinoa pasta? It is great and nutritionally more sound than even brown rice. Just an idea and would love to see you guys again in Silver City.

I have been gluten free for almost a year now, and I’ve noticed a significant difference in my health and aerobic endurance ability. Yeah, it’s a little more difficult to go out to eat and find snacks, but the little sacrifice is worth it. My Cholesterol went down to 140 and I’m healthier than ever! I love to bike, I ride 5-6 times a week and I never feel bad afterwards! I was so happy to see this article come out so I can show my friends that I’m not the only crazy person not eating wheat anymore! Now the best pro cycling team in the world has stopped too! Thanks for the affirmation guys! Ride strong and safe!

Totally agree, reduce inflammation/allergic response from food and environment. Get yourself blood tested for allergies.

“The Caveman Diet” by tracy jones, and “The Paleo Diet for Athletes: A Nutritional Formula for Peak Athletic Performance”, co-authored by Joe Friel, both discuss the details about anti-inflammatory foods. try omega-3 (a.k.a. fish oil) supplements, which have an anti-inflammatory effect. Since cutting out pasta and grains from my diet (or drastically limiting them), and taking omega-3 supplements, my incidence of asthma (basically an inflammation of the airways) has been seriously reduced. big difference for me racing bikes in TX where we experience drastic temperature changes (except for the summer when it is always hot). not any more.

I hope there will be a book/cookbook. This is good information for those of us who don’t want to medicate but use food and exercise for optimum health.

No Cilantro Lime Rice? Maybe I eat too much of it myself.

I saw in an earlier posting that you guys use Sushi rice, any other kinds of rice you might use?
