This really surprised me. I had been experiencing major gastrointestinal issues for years while I was drinking, and my doctor said it was lactose intolerance. I cut out dairy entirely and it helped a little, but I had diharrea every day regardless and nothing helped. I’m happy to report that after getting sober I can now drink milk, eat cheese, and enjoy a milkshake without any side effects whatsoever. I suspect it’s something to do with my gut microbiome or whatever it’s called.
Figured this might be a tiny sliver of hope for some folks, so I wanted to share. IWNDWYT!
I have also noticed this, but mine was tomatoes. Basically an overload of histamines. I figure that since my body isn’t trying to fight the alcohol it can properly regulate histamines now. I don’t really know how it’s working but I’ll take it. Salsa and pasta and pizza again!
