Food Allergies & Intoleraces

Image
As a society we have become more and more familiar with food allergies and intolerances than ever before.  I personally have been affected by food intolerances & auto-immune responses where it can affect my health in significant ways if I don't practice what I know now. I had ongoing symptoms of fatigue, gut-issues and having unexplainable symptoms for months on end without reaching a diagnosis after thousands of tests. I eventually went to  seek the help of a holistic practitioner who tested for food sensitivities that came back positive - to my surprise.

I have always admired women who have a positive body image that seems to appear so effortlessly to them. The question is if that confidence is really true or if it is only a front they put up to the world to hide behind their true insecurities. How can you become a woman of body confidence and enthusiasm towards your looks? There are some obvious traits these women possess.

It all comes down to your weight is not your worth. I strongly believe the the dieting culture is something that is going out of fashion at a ra...
