Hi, I’m Monika, the face behind Gluten Free Made Easy with Mon and I’m your Gluten Free Best Friend 😉
I thought it’s time to get to know each other better 🫶🏻
So today, I wanted to share my gluten free story with you.
My gluten free journey didn’t start because it was a trend…
I was suffering from various symptoms like bloating, stomach cramps, acne, feeling tired, having brain fog, fatigue, mouth ulcers. My GP kept telling me that everything was ok with me, that it was normal to feel like this. I was told just to stop eating gluten. I was feeling ignored, misunderstood and not taken seriously. I didn’t agree with that….
After multiple fights and doctors refusing to test me for coeliac disease or gluten allergy, I decided to seek help privately. Only then I found out that I not only had non coeliac gluten sensitivity but other gut issues as well that left untreated created a domino effect. Even when I gave the results to my GP, I was completely ignored.
My mission is to make everyone on gluten free diet feel understood, safe and included, regardless of the reason.
