Holland & Barrett Supplements

In June last year I cut out wheat from my diet as I was having a lot of pain, bloating and toilet issues. This made a huge difference so I kept avoiding it. On the rare occasion I would accidentally have wheat it would make me really ill so my doctor referred me to a gastroenterologist. He suggested I do the gluten challenge before an endoscopy. I had a slice...
