“Could Your Diet Be Making You Sick?”

Intro:
You eat “healthy.” But you still feel bloated, tired, foggy, or anxious. The truth is, some of the most common so-called healthy foods can actually trigger inflammation, hormone disruption, and gut issues—especially for women in midlife.

Sometimes the very foods we think are nourishing us are actually triggering inflammation, hormone disruption, and gut issues—especially for women navigating perimenopause and beyond.

What Is Food Sensitivity (And Why It’s Not the Same as an Allergy)?

Food sensitivities are delayed immune reactions—meaning you can eat something on Monday and not feel symptoms until Tuesday. Unlike allergies, sensitivities don’t cause hives or anaphylaxis—but they can cause fatigue, joint pain, bloating, acne, and mood swings.

Top Offenders: Gluten, Dairy, Soy, and Sugar

These foods can damage the gut lining and contribute to systemic inflammation. Even “healthy” versions (like whole-wheat bread or soy milk) may be triggering your symptoms.

Signs Your Diet Might Be the Problem

• You feel better on vacation (less exposure to usual foods)

• You rely on coffee or sugar for energy

• You get brain fog, headaches, or bloating after meals
