You eat pretty healthy. You work out. But something still feels... off.
Sound familiar?
A food allergy causes an immediate, often obvious reaction - think swelling, hives, or trouble breathing. It’s something you usually know about pretty quickly. You may have a food Sensitivity.
What’s the difference between a food sensitivity and an allergy?
- A food allergy causes an immediate, often obvious reaction — think swelling, hives, or trouble breathing. It’s something you usually know about pretty quickly.
- A food sensitivity, on the other hand, can be much sneakier. The symptoms are often delayed and can show up hours (or even days) after you eat the trigger. That’s why it’s so hard to pinpoint - and why so many people live with sensitivities without realizing it..
Here are 7 common signs your body might be reacting to something in your diet:
1. Afternoon fatigue or brain fog
2. Skin breakouts or irritation
3. Bloating or water retention after certain meals
4. Joint stiffness or random inflammation
5. Mood swings or irritability
6. Trouble sleeping or restless nights
7. Constant cravings - especially for the “wrong” foods
If you’ve been chasing symptoms or cutting foods without clarity, you’re not alone. When you know your triggers, you stop guessing - and start healing with
Intention. No more random food eliminations or blaming your body. You can finally make choices that support how you feel, not just what’s trending.
Awareness creates control. Once you know what’s behind the bloating, fatigue, or fog, you can take back your mornings, your workouts, your clarity - on your terms.
Clarity takes the pressure off. It’s not about perfection or cutting everything out. It’s about understanding what works for your body so you can live without second-guessing every bite.
It’s not just about what you remove - it’s about what you gain. Confidence. Energy. Focus. Peace of mind. That’s what comes from knowing what’s really going on behind the scenes.
You don’t need a new diet. You need better data. The body gives clues - but only when you tune into the right ones. When you identify your personal food triggers, you unlock the kind of progress that guessing can’t deliver.
