It took me a LONG time to realize potatoes were triggers for me.
So I have squash and yams instead.
You can get substantial protein from Edamame beans (they are very good tasting), regular beans, and eggs, whey protein, yogurt, and nuts. I find the pouched salmon makes a great sandwich. Tuna has warnings now about heavy metals. Sometimes I have shrimp for lunch.
Some people cannot tolerate certain beans...Beans have lectins on them which are toxic for some people. Red beans esp if not cooked properly can be a nightmare:

Mrs D here is a challenging list of intolerance's for me
1. gluten
2. lactose
3. msg
4. additives (last 2 based on neuro pain)
5.Hemochromatosis gene carrier
6. sleep apnea (cpap)
7. N/p
As you can see I really have no choice but to go 90% raw and vege fruit diet, getting tired of reading labels
Through default Im going to get better thats the easy bit, If I had a choice I doubt I would be strong enough to avoid pizza but 1 and 2 took care of that problem. I still take all the Vita B supps and C and D etc etc as mentioned in stickys
