Understanding Food Sensitivity
Food intolerance is not usually life-threatening, but it can leave you feeling extremely unwell. Symptoms can be delayed by many hours, or even days, which is why it can be so difficult to pinpoint the foods causing the problem.
Common Signs of Food Intolerance
Food intolerance may produce a wide range of symptoms, including:
​
✓ Bloating, constipation, diarrhoea, flatulence
✓ Headaches, migraine, nausea, stomach cramps, abdominal pain
✓ Itchy skin problems
✓ Anxiety, depression, insomnia, sleep disturbances
✓ Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Inflammatory Bowel Disease, gastritis
✓ Water retention, weight control problems
✓ Lethargy, fogginess, and a general feeling of unwellness
​
Many sufferers report symptoms that persist for years, and some feel they have not had clear answers elsewhere.
Food Sensitivity
Food sensitivities can happen when your body reacts badly to certain foods. Often the foods you eat regularly, or the foods you crave, may be the ones causing the issue.

The page notes that research has shown food sensitivity can be linked to IgG antibodies produced when problem foods are eaten, and that if the immune or digestive system is not working optimally, this may contribute to a wide range of symptoms.
