I took a food intolerance test out of curiosity to learn more about my body and turns out, the stuff I eat every day is probably what’s been messing with my skin.
Been dealing with acne for a while now. I eat clean, workout, stay on top of skincare, do all the “right” thing, but if I’m doing all this and still breaking out, then something’s clearly off. And my gut’s been saying otherwise this whole time.
The test showed eggs, milk, and almonds ranked highest in intolerance. Wild, considering they’ve been in my daily routine for years. What I didn’t realize is that constantly eating foods my body can’t properly digest was actually messing with my gut flora. And when your gut’s out of balance, it can trigger inflammation, which can show up as acne.
I could be eating the “perfect” diet, but if my body’s reacting foreign to it, it’s doing the reverse of what I want. Looking back, I should’ve listened sooner, those signs like bloating and fatigue weren’t random. 1 reply
