It's 'in' to be intolerant

It's a little known fact that Gwyneth Paltrow is the Goddess of fitness and health: 

Gwyneth has managed to dedicate her whole life to fitness. Not only has she named her daughter after a fruit (Apple), she has also taken it upon herself, to ensure that her whole family live a gluten-free, dairy-free and chicken-egg-free (?) lifestyle. ALL BECAUSE THEY ARE 'ALLERGIC'... All 4 of them... Sounds legit doesn't it?!

Another celeb' who associates her slim physique to her allergies is Miley Cyrus. Apparently Miley is allergic to gluten AND lactose. 

NOTE - The celeb' allergy list does not end here, visit this blog if you actually care to see which allergies/intolerances each celeb' claims to have. Oh and bravo to the lady who took her time to form that list, especially as it is now apparent that 80% of the celeb population claim to have an intolerance to some form of food. 

This intolerance mania has lead me to the assumption that we, as normal people are living the wrong life. Every day we see pictures of celebrities with perfectly toned bodies and every day we look in the mirror and wonder what the hell their secret is... Well I think i've found it. We need to pretend we have allergies. Maybe it will set us an aim, it will give us an excuse to say no to certain foods, it means we can food shop in 'Free From' aisles and be at one with our hippy sisters. We will no longer face criticism off friends who slate us for saying no to pizza with them, because in fact they will feel sorry for us that we are now intolerant to gluten.

Cutting out gluten and dairy (not sure about chicken eggs) is also highly beneficial for our health. Studies have shown that the elimination of gluten from our diets can result in an increase in energy levels as well as improving the bodies digestive system, eliminating gluten also drastically reduces the bodies intake of sugar and fat. However it must be noted that gluten-free products can be high in fat and carbs, so do your research; stick to organic vegetables and organic products, maybe even make your own gluten-free treats.

Dairy free, now this is the big one, apparently by cutting out lactose, symptoms such as nausea, anxiety and stress are lessened....OH and many women have found that they drop weight after dropping dairy. See this site for more info> Dairy Free Me 

Let me know if you do either and please let me know how it goes! I will be doing a post on dairy/gluten free treats soon, so hold tight.
