Food intolerance - everyone should know! ๐๐ฅ
Did you know that protein intolerance affects 40% of people, and half of the world's population is lactose intolerant? ๐ฑ In Eastern countries and South Africa, the percentage is even higher!
If you have allergies from childhood, intolerance usually shows up later in life - after 20-25 years. โ๏ธ
As we age, our bodies don't need as much sugar or milk as they did when we were kids. Our metabolism slows down, making it harder to digest certain things. ๐
If we ignore this and keep eating the same way, we can develop inflammation in our intestines. ๐ซ
It's important to know what foods you're intolerant to and limit how much you eat them. That way, you can protect your body from unnecessary stress. ๐ช
