the story
Why GrainFree exists
This isn’t branding copy. It’s the path that turned confusion into a system.
From Surviving to Building Again
From Surviving to Building Again
Before celiac, I was gaining muscle, eating well, finally feeling strong. But after one vacation, everything changed.
What started as food poisoning turned into fatigue, rapid weight loss, panic attacks, and months of confusion. No answers. Just frustration, anxiety, and feeling like I was slipping further away from who I was.
The Diagnosis Journey
The Diagnosis Journey
I tried to go back to my old routine, eating more, pushing through, but nothing worked. Every meal ended in fatigue, vomiting, anxiety, and eventually panic attacks. I was nearly diagnosed with PTSD.
I saw doctors. Took pills. Still, nothing. Two years later, I was finally diagnosed with celiac disease.
Healing Took More Than a Diagnosis
Healing Took More Than a Diagnosis
I was relieved, but also crushed. I couldn’t eat what I used to. I couldn’t trust labels. And figuring out what was safe felt like a full-time job.
With the help of my mom, we researched everything — snacks, ingredients, hidden gluten sources. It was long, exhausting, and overwhelming. But we made it work.
Recovery (and Clarity)
Recovery (and Clarity)
I fasted for a month during Ramadan. I stayed strictly gluten-free. And I finally started gaining weight again.
My energy came back. My mind was clear. No fatigue. No panic. Alhamdulillah.

This is why I built GrainFree
This site wasn’t built by a company. It was built by someone who lived it.
Someone who struggled to figure it out — and wants to make sure you don’t have to go through that alone.
GrainFree is for:
People trying to eat better without confusion
Those struggling to gain weight on a gluten-free diet
Anyone just trying to feel like themselves again
and everyone in between
There's no pricing, no spam, no BS. Just real food, smart tools, and a guide I wish I had when I needed it most.
You're one decision away from feeling in control again.
