Why is gluten bad for you?
Gluten can be found in wheat, and it's this protein that has been causing millions of people around the world a lot of problems. Gluten is thought to cause an autoimmune reaction in your body, which can lead to a whole host of issues.
Incredibly a little too much gluten can cause your gut to inflame, simply because the gluten protein has irritated it. Many problems can occur as a result of gut inflammation, such as intestinal permeability (Otherwise known as 'leaky gut'.) But that's not all that gluten can do to you, this naturally occurring protein can also make you more susceptible to other autoimmune conditions such as:
•Rheumatoid arthritis
•Type 1 diabetes
•Thyroid disorders
•Fibromyalgia
Consuming a little gluten can also damage gut bacteria. This type of bacteria is known as a 'friendly' bacteria, and can help to keep your immune system running nicely, and we as helping you to digest your food, and work out how hungry or full you are. If you consume gluten, you could, end up damaging your gut bacteria, and it's this that could lead to a lot of problems.
How to tell if you're sensitive to gluten?
Many people are unaware that they are sensitive to gluten, simply because they don't know the warning signs. If you suspect that you may be sensitive to gluten, or you want to know what the symptoms are, take a look below:
•You often feel fatigued after eating a gluten-based meal
•You tend to suffer from migraines
•You often feel off-balanced or dizzy
•You suffer from mood swings, depression and anxiety
•The skin on the back of your arms looks like chicken skin
•You have psoriasis, lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, or another autoimmune disease
If you can identify with a lot of the above symptoms, speak to your doctor as soon as you can. In the meantime, try to cut gluten out of your diet, and see how much better you feel. Please note that it could take 6-12 months for the gluten protein to completely leave your body. Once you have eliminated gluten from your diet for 3 weeks, eat something that does contain gluten. If eating gluten again makes you feel worse, it's likely you're sensitive to it.
