Due to mineral or vitamin deficiencies, paleness could be a symptom of anemia.

I know that I still look pale, but I used to look like Casper.

A friend of mine called me the whitest white girl in Florida.

And I was at the beach every other week.

My dd gave me a compliment the other day. She said she wanted to be as healthy as I look because she wanted her lips to look like they already had lipstick on them.

Before going gluten-free I was so pale people would think I was ready to faint. My lips looked just like my skin, no color at all. I am fair skinned so I can really tell how much better I look now. I also have some color in my cheeks.

This happened since I went completely gluten free.

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
