3. Brain Fog
Gluten-induced brain fog is a commonly reported symptom and often comes before intense tiredness3https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7454984. When the fog descends, sufferers experience a hazy mental state where simple tasks need significant concentration. Some sufferers even report that their words come out incorrectly. Those in jobs with a lot of mental application or creativity can suffer when their thinking slows down.
The exact cause of brain fog is unknown. It’s thought it may be caused by inflammation and an immune system reaction to gluten.
