@tamsin@toot.wales To add to this, when I started going gluten free for my health, my immediate family also tried it out for a bit to be supportive and soon found out they ALSO had some sensitivity to gluten. Some have since gone back on to gluten, others have been on and off for years, but it absolutely did change everybody's relationship to certain foods. It's a really weird issue to deal with because sometimes the world feels like it's filled with things that are going to make you sick and it feels like a big scary problem with no solution that other people make worse because they don't understand or see the issues you have, other times it feels like you're giving up on a big part of life (I still get cravings for bread, every day), other times I'm super grateful for knowing what my triggers are and that I have the tools to achieve good health because of the hard work I did way earlier. Most days I have no issues and life feels normal and that's when it's all worth it. It's a process, is what I'm saying I guess. I'd recommend connecting with any local celiac community where you live. You'll get great advice and better support from them (and recipes!).
