Unable to eat starches

Unable to eat starches

Sometimes I lose my appetite for anything but meat and fruit. When I try to eat a starch I feel nauseas and am usually unable to finish it (sometimes I can eat more/all of it if it's sweet). I can barely tolerate vegetables when I'm like this, and it's a problem because there is usually no fruit or meat in my household. Can you tell me what is wrong with me and how I can fix it?

I'm wondering if you might have a gluten intolerance? Have you ever been tested for Celiac? The thing with Celiac, though, is it doesn't show up on a blood test until there's actually been damage. You could be gluten sensitive or intolerant for years before it showed up as Celiac. I'd still ask to be tested and try eliminating gluten from your diet and see what happens. There are many breads, etc., made now without gluten in them. Try it out and see how you feel.
You may also want to ask to be referred to an allergist to test for food allergies.
Best wishes.
