Gluten sensitivity: what I wish I knew sooner

At first constant bloating: I’ve been always thin but certain foods would just make me bloat and I could not figure out why (at first) I just thought I had some hormonal problem from using birth control or water retention problems… reasons why I rarely wear crop tops or bikinis I just don’t feel confident when I bloat.

Next my face started to breakout: yes, gluten can make your face breakout like no other, add that to getting super bloated every time I ate anything and you guessed it I was miserable… I did not know why this was happening to me.

Let’s keep adding…constipation: yes, gluten intolerance can make you constipated, sometimes on the first stages. I ended up having to go to the ER I was so mortified ….

What finally made me ask myself maybe something I’m eating was my migraines … yes last thing to add was migraines I already have migraines as they run in my family but gluten can amplify the pain by a lot.

migraines: I’ve tried every from medicine to supplements nothing helps but I can say that eliminating gluten helps lessen the migraines episodes.

Becoming gluten intolerant was random one day I could eat any bread or pasta the next I just could not even touch it.. in while for some people since sensitivities or intolerances can go away overtime… for me has been the opposite … it’s gotten so bad that my body can tell when my food has been contaminated with gluten I get bloated and gass😭 and if I eat gluten I get violently ill 😷.

but apparently is common for adults to develop food intolerances/sensitivities.

My thoughts:

At first it was so hard for me to adjust. I felt hungry all the time and struggled with knowing what to eat. Now I feel like I’ve adjusted. I don’t mind myself missing I can’t eat as much anymore… (although it does suck from time to time)

I am also going to start sharing some of my hormonal imbalance journey and the supplements I found that changed my life.
