Which Gluten Containing Food Causes Bruising Of Eyes?

Hello my daughter is in India doing prac work for her Uni degree. She has been there one day and has woken up with eyes that look like she has been punched (all bruised). She is gluten sensitive and feels sick after eating dairy. With this reaction what is the food which would have likely caused this? Thank You Leanne

Hi,
Gluten is a protein mainly found in wheat and bread is a rich source of gluten.
If she is allergic to gluten then she must avoid foods made from wheat or its related grains,also avoid bread and meat like chicken,beef etc..
Allergy can be diagnosed only on the basis of patient's history although food allergic testing is done in laboratory but its not reliable and also adds cost to the patient.
The best way to cure allergy is to avoid contact with that particular allergen.
She can go to dermatologist and ask for antiallergic drugs like steroids and antihistamines.
I find this answer helpful
