Acne, Dark Circles, Dull Skin- Gone!

I have been gluten free just shy of two months. Other than that lovely PMS time of the month, I noticed after about a month of being gluten-free that my skin texture/tone/etc. was improving. I was vaguely aware of this at first, but one morning I looked in the mirror and was just giddy by what I saw. I have had acne trouble most of my life. I have looked more and more sickly with dark circles, lines and dullness of my skin for the past couple of years (I'm only 31!). The acne is GONE. The dark circles- GONE. I sound like some sort of silly commercial for a 'look younger, feel better!' bogus infomercial product, but I'm in Aww. In general I am feeling better and better, but I'm wondering- has anyone else been surprised by this cool side effect? :)

My daughter's acne has been getting so much better gluten free but it flares up if she gets cross contaminated. Also, the brown spots on her chest/neck area are finally fading.

Not surprising at all. I was told by my son that I was aging backwards. Always nice to hear. Glad things are going well for you and thanks for sharing the good news.

I must say I am very pleased. ;)

Like many have said, there seem to be so many symptoms that I didn't even realize were symptoms- just seemed to be a part of everyday life, until they were gone... Now to try to gain some weight back!

I've been gluten free for a month and everyone keeps commenting that my skin looks amazing... I've had acne since I was twelve and I haven't had any more spots appear in the last two weeks or so. :) I never would have guessed that it would fix my acne along with everything else, but I'm certainly not complaining !!

YEs, my daughter's dark circles are slowly fading away and her skin looks better. More color, not so pale.

      KAN-101 Treatment for Coeliac Disease

      By Russ H · Posted

      This treatment looks promising. Its aim is to provoke immune tolerance of gluten, possibly curing the disease. It passed the phase 2 trial with flying colours, and I came across a post on Reddit by one of the study volunteers. Apparently, the results were good enough that the company is applying for fast track approval.  Anokion Announces Positive Symptom Data from its Phase 2 Trial Evaluating KAN-101 for the Treatment of Celiac Disease https://www.reddit.com/r/Celiac/comments/1krx2wh/kan_101_trial_put_on_hold/

      Gluten related ??

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi everyone  This has been a crazy year so far... How many people actually get entire sensory overload from gluten or something similar ?  My jaw is going nuts ..and that nerve is affecting my upper back and so on ...  Bones even hurt.  Brain fog. Etc  I had eggs seemed fine.   Then my aid cooked a chicken stir fry in the microwave because my food order shorted a couple key items .   I was so hungry but I noticed light breading and some ingredients with SOY !!! Why are we suffering with soy ? This triggered a sensitivity to bananas and gluten-free yogurt it seems like it's a cycle that it goes on.  The tiniest amount of something gets me I'm guessing the tiny bit of breading that I took one tiny nibble of ...yikes ..im cringing from it .. Feels like my stomach is going to explode yet still very hungry 😔  How long does this last?! Thank you so much

      Celiac getting dentures

      By gfmom06 · Posted

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.
