Has anyone on here moved from a ‘normal’ diet to a gluten free one?

If so how did it go? Many side effects initially? Feel better?

Thanks in advance 👍🏻

My wife changed to a gluten free diet some years ago due to IBS. No side effects and yes she feels better for it. The times that she has given in to food with gluten in since then, she definitely knows about it and not in a good way.

Apologies for veering off topic, but a few years ago I was diagnosed as being dairy intolerant. Felt so much better even 2 days after cutting dairy. Definitely worth embracing tests and removing things that don’t agree with us.

Cheers for the replies. I did an intolerance test and it came back I had a sensitivity to gluten amongst other things. I’m 3 weeks into going gluten free. I’ve lost some weight which is good and I feel better generally but I’m still having some digestive symptoms and have read it can take a while to adjust. Just wondered if anyone else had experienced similar.

For most people one food intolerance is simply the start of their journey. When I cut dairy I gradually lost about 6lbs over the next 2 months. A few months later I started to have the same bloating and discomfort symptoms and my doctor suggested the Fodmap diet. I then discovered problems with the onion family.

It’s surprising how many people you talk to have problems with intolerances and most find that 1 becomes 2 or 3. It took me about a year to work through an elimination diet, but it was worth it in the end.

The trouble is with gluten there's a possibility that it could be coeliac, however to get a medical diagnosis you need to be eating a good amount of gluten (I think equivalent of 6 slices of bread a day) for a decent period of time when the test is done, or you can get a false negative.

I don't follow GF diet now, as my issues are due to Ulcerative Colitis and it only helped some days but I think it's a lot easier now due to there being a wider range of GF products available.  There's definitely more beer than there was a few years ago   but its things you don't expect to have gluten in that can catch you out e.g. Oven chips

My Grandson was diagnosed with coeliacs disease a few years ago. His diet was changed to gluten free, his stepdad did the same to support him, and he has never looked back.

I was diagnosed as coeliac in 2013. I’d lost 14kg so from 76 to 61 and had raging diarrhoea most of the time
Stopped eating gluten and not had a problem since, putting most of the weight back on
First went to my GP In 2010 and asked for guidance on how to put weight on healthily. He actually laughed because every middle aged man in Europe is putting weight on and can’t stop it!
