My allergies have become untenable of late and seem to be getting progressively worse. It has gotten to the point that I can not wear makeup or hair products because my eczema has gotten so bad my skin will crack and weep. My bed often looks like a wolverine has attacked me in the night as I scratch so much in my sleep I bleed. I can’t go hiking due to pollen or visit family members who have pets. Even my nephews spray-on deodorant is enough to make me flee my sister’s house with swollen eyelids and the urge to pull my face off.
Recently I teamed up with the lovely team at and tried out their Optimal Intolerance test to dig deep into 280 possible culprits.

Here is my story over the last 8 weeks:
Intolerance Testing
Becoming a human fireball with a pissy immune system
Going on steroid anti-inflammatories
8 Week Elimination Diet
Identifying problem foods, intolerances and environmental issues

Intolerance Testing in New Zealand Review & My Overactive Immune System Story - Part 1 - Gluten Free New Zealand Recently I had intolerance testing done in New Zealand to help me get to the bottom of some auto immune intolerance issues.

www.GlutenFreeKiwi.com updated their business hours.

My allergies are going haywire at the moment, I’m hypersensitive to a bunch of new things and I’m looking at getting some hair testing for 280 foods / heavy metals/ pesticides / mineral levels and allergens. Would anyone be interested in hearing more about how it goes?

I found gluten free beer and vegan gluten free dairy free poutine here in

So I had a bit if a nightmare holiday last week to the Gold Coast...

As you all know I have skin allergies along with food intolerances and they are so much worse when you are away from home and I don't have all my Go to lotions and potions to tame them.

I woke up the first night of my trip, scrunched my eyes open, only to realise one of them did not want to open, upon prodding my face, I realised it was pretty darn puffy, so I asked my partner, if my face looks weird, and he jumped telling me it kinda looked like I had had a stroke (I hadn't).

ON the left is me on a normal day when I am eating gluten, dairy free and low sugar. On the right is me after touching things that a cat had touched. In this particular instance, it was a cat sleeping on my pillowcase or towel.

So pleased to be back home with all my lotions and potions and regular diet to get my skin back to normal.

The one thing I love the most is COCONUT OIL, Aloe and my Marshmellow oil serum! when my skin is like this.

With that in mind, I wanted to give a shout out to my sister for writing a book on gluten-free skincare.

I have been doing some Intermittent Fasting to try and heal some autoimmune issues and trigger a process called autophagy to tap into my bodies natural healing capabilities and deal with some immune system and hormone issues. So I whipped up this bad boy to break my fast at lunchtime in the gluten-free kitchen.

I would have to say this is one of the tastier green smoothies I have made so far, so I thought I would make a recipe post :D
