Manage episode 502932768 series 3629382
If you’ve ever been sure you got glutened – only to find out it was something else – you’re not alone. I’ve been there too.

I’ll share how I spotted my own hidden triggers, what you can do to track yours, and how to start feeling better faster. And at the end, I’ve got a bonus tip – the unexpected trigger I only discovered last year that changed my day-to-day life.
