Please be careful: if you really do have celiac‘s, then gluten has a short-term effect on your body (let’s call those „bathroom-related“), and yeah, maybe under certain circumstances you don’t experience these, which is certainly nice.

But mind you: it also has a long-term effect, one that you will realize only much later, if you don’t keep your diet absolutely strict! And I’m pretty sure some biking won’t prevent these effects! It’s slowly killing your guts - please read up on it.

Thanks. Your comment feels like the most important one here. I know I’m kind of self-diagnosing in a folksy way by finding a diet that works for me, and that’s probably not a good idea if I do have celiac’s. I’m gonna see if I can find a doctor that can give me a test. It might take a minute because I live in Asia and it’s a very rare disease here.
