can food intolerance cause anxiety and depression?

Posted by: admin  /  Category: food intolerance

If so, would there not be some physical signs too like upset stomach.
My anxiety and depression is normally alot worse after having a few beers and at its worst two days later.

Would that indicate a wheat alergy?

No, food doesn’t care whether you tolerate it or not. Food is not capable of feeling anxious or depressed.

    Yeah and it can also be that anxiety and depression causes food intolerance. ie eating then having anxiety causes your digestive system to "freeze" and you have diarrhea.

    And I have HORRIBLE anxiety - and unlike most people would think it makes you more anxious after you’re drinking. Someone told me that the sugars etc in alcohol can make your anxiety as bad as if you had just snorted cocaine.
