A member asked:
Recently, i have heard that a gluten intolerance can make you gain weight but i'm curious if food allergy related weight gain is a myth or not?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It is not a myth: Food allergy weight gain is not a myth as it can set up different processes in the body that are not healthy and weight gain is one aspect. It does not happen all the itme or to everyone...
