RECOGNISING THE SIGNS OF FOOD INTOLERANCE
When food repeatedly leaves you feeling bloated, uncomfortable, exhausted or simply “not right”, it can be difficult to know where to begin. This guide is designed to help you slow the process down and look for patterns without immediately cutting lots of foods from your diet.
Inside, you’ll find a clear explanation of food intolerance, common digestive and whole-body signs, the important difference between intolerance and food allergy, a practical food-and-symptom diary, guidance on elimination and reintroduction, questions to take to your GP or dietitian, book recommendations, and a compassionate first-person composite reflection from someone who reached the point of saying, “I’ve had enough of feeling this way.”
The guide also discusses commercial food intolerance testing carefully and transparently. If you choose to explore YorkTest, my code is PLEAROYD. Test results should be considered alongside symptoms and professional advice rather than used as a stand-alone diagnosis.
Most importantly, this is not about creating a longer list of foods to fear. It is about understanding your body, protecting your nutrition and helping you move towards more confidence and choice around food.
