Having a food intolerance to nuts, seeds or beans can be very problematic. Often used as snacking options, these foods offer a good range of nutrients, essential amino acids, as well as dietary fibre.
Manifesting as bloating, Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), weight gain, fatigue, skin problems, migraines or joint pain, even a mild food intolerance to grains and staples may have a major impact upon a person’s day to day activities, and the inclusion of these foods in popular meals is so common that the actual intolerances can be difficult to find, and also to avoid successfully.
Hannah, a shop assistant in a fashion store, often suffered really bad bloating, with no identifiable cause – it would come and go, along with some very uncomfortable gastric reflux.
Taking a Smartblood food intolerance test helped Hannah identify her trigger foods, one of which was Cashew Nuts After recieving her full results and having a consultation with a Smartblood Nutritional Therapist Hannah was able to remove her trigger foods and replace them with healthy alternatives. Her bloating, as well as her heartburn have now stopped.
I was prone to really bad bloating, as well as indigestion, even though my diet was quite low in calories. I took a Smartblood Food Intolerance Test and found that I had a grade 4 reaction to Cashews, and less severe reactions to other foods. By cutting them from my diet I no longer "Bloat" and can wear the clothes that I like. - Hannah
