I have been gluten free for a year and I have lost 70 pounds, my skin has cleared up and my periods are more regular. My hair has also stopped falling out. I feel alive again! I posted a new thread under General called PCOS linked to gluten allergy, take a look. I started taking a zinc supplement because celiacs stops your body from absorbing important minerals and vitamins and now my skin is really clear. I was lacking in iron and zonc especially.

Did your lab work show a lack in zinc and iron?

Yes it showed I was anemic, the zinc I figured out for myself, my acne cleared up in 2 weeks after starting to take it and that was the only thing in my diet or skin regime that changed.

I'm completely frustrated with my skin, but it could be worse. I have eczema, dark patches (AN), and now my skin on my face is so oily and my hands are so dry! But like I said, it could always be worse and I'm thankful that it's not. . .
