Vertigo Often Caused By Food Allergies

The food allergy and gluten intolerance fields are full of unknowns, but circumstantial evidence is building that there’s a direct correlation between allergies and vertigo. In my personal experience it only takes one bite of a nightshade food and within 60 seconds my world starts to spin with a feeling of walking down a dark tunnel, similar to the wooziness right before you faint. Know that feeling? We’ve all experienced it at some point.

This article by Nutrition Therapist Melissa McLean Jory is fantastic. It covers Gluten Ataxia – or put more simply if you’re gluten intolerant and eat gluten your head spins.

For me, once I started to understand what’s happening with my body and started removing foods that cause symptoms, I felt better just knowing I was in control. Knowledge is power.
