I have been GF for 1 1/2 years now and I noticed that my skin color has
changed and that I tan much more easily than I used to. This happened within
a couple of weeks of going GF. I was always very blond and pale and white
shirts washed me out. Now I'm finding I can wear white and pastels and look
just fine. I sunburn less because my body seems to have more melanin, so I
tan instead of burn. I've developed a lot of new freckles too. My naturopath
and I were wondering if maybe my adrenals were fatigued but tests came back
fine.

Has anyone else experienced this? It's certainly a welcome change for me.
It's just one of the many benefits I have received from eliminating gluten.
