    Hi please guide me on this whenever I have gluten my body swells up and it’s seen everywhere like puffy face stomach back feet nothing other than that is it gluten intolerance?

    • @faithw5651 says:

      Most likely. If you’re having severe reactions like that everytime you eat gluten just go gluten free. There are so many gluten free options that are replicas for gluten products. Lots of nutritious breads, pastas, baked goods etc made from alternative “flours” that in many cases are actually healthier than wheat. I’m sorry that you have this experience with gluten. But, you’re not alone. I have gluten intolerance and lactose in tolerance (I’m not taking offense to this parody btw ) and when I stopped eating gluten and dairy my health increased immensely. I just use vegan options for dairy products and gluten free for wheat. I don’t skip meals though, eat balanced throughout the day, probably on the scheme of 70/30 more than 80/20 (ratio of Whole Foods to once in a while foods) and by doing so I feel really good

    What’s wrong with pilates though??

    • @valgdeluca says:

      nothing wrong with pilates itself, it’s just really badly misinterpreted and put on a pedestal by diet culture trends, so people like the kind abbey is parodying here wouldn’t be doing it for the right reasons. I recommend Mina Le’s “the myth of the pilates body” video for a more in depth commentary about it

    • @KO-ef8ls says:

      @valgdeluca  oh trust me, I understand that. But as a trainer, I would be happy with my clients doing any physical activity that feels good to them. I don’t like demonizing anything. Personally, I stick with weights, but that doesn’t feel good to everyone 🤷🏼‍♀️

    • @DELLRS2012 says:

      Going to Pilates is fine. Flexing to everyone that you do Pilates gives off diet culture vibes

    • @valgdeluca says:

      @@KO-ef8ls absolutely – all kinds of exercise is valid, especially for people who already don’t get a lot. But the kind of person this video is parodying very likely doesn’t have an issue of not exercising enough and needing to get that kind of movement in in whatever way feels good – they’re likely already overexerting themselves, and only sticking to pilates because diet culture told them it would make them “skinny”. We shouldn’t demonise it, agreed, but we should be honest with what to realistically expect, and the reasons why one should do it – prioritizing health and wellbeing, not centering the promise of a certain look (which, realistically, not everyone can achieve even with the same exact exercise/diet regimen since everyone’s bodies are different). In this case, it’s not a demonization of pilates itself, but more showing that the obsession with pilates is just one of many symptoms that signifies the person in question likely has a bit of a toxic relationship with diet culture.

    • @jonap5740 says:

      @@KO-ef8ls There’s no demonizing going on here. It’s a parody, a kind of humour. It’s a “send up”. Abbey probably does pilates herself. Pretty sure it’s the combination of thing going on here that’s she’s making fun of.

    Hey Abby and team, there has been a study thats cropped recently that Creatine does not help build muscle. I can’t find the study but was wondering with your connections that you might be able to and perhaps validate or debunk it. I started creatine a little while back after watching your recommendation video and am concerned that despite all the evidence that it is beneficial, there may be more research needed. Thank you in advance.

    • @user-strength10 says:

      it is benefical but they’ve also discovered that 25-30% of the population are non-responders to creatine…. on a personal note i didn’t notice the effects/benefits until after taking it for awhile so it could either be that you need more time with it or something else

    • @jesssealey6552 says:

      ​@@user-strength10 thank you for your reply. I will continue to take it as even if the muscle growth takes longer to kick in them perhaps the other benefits might still apply without my direct notice. Take care!

    • @user-strength10 says:

      @@jesssealey6552 no prob, might i also suggest checking out the general market for generic creatine, for some odd reason i noticed that the supplement “branded and targeted” towards woman is alot more expensive…. creatine is creatine, nothing different about the brand itself (figure you may want to save a few $$)… good luck

    It’s the hyper awareness and avoiding bloating at all costs for me. I don’t care if it makes me look diet culturey. I have real gut problems from medication side effects and I will cut foods out that disturb the balance I have going. There’s nothing toxic about it if you have legit reasons to do what you’re doing. I eat a healthy breakfast every morning though.

    • @margaritapeeva9181 says:

      I think it’s more than clear she doesn’t mean the people who have genuine issues. She’s talking about people who are perfectly healthy but are obsessed with diet bs that is just not relevant to them. Because of these people, many others who have genuine problems are not taken seriously, so I’m actually glad Abbey’s calling them out.
