Megan Mckenna unveils her brand new gluten free cookbook after trolls branded her ‘anorexic’

Megan McKenna has unveiled a new gluten free cookbook to help others battling celiac disease.

The 29-year-old revealed that she has suffered in silence with celiac disease since she was a child, forcing her to avoid gluten.

The condition is caused by the immune system attacking and damaging the gut when you eat food such as bread, wheat and flour.

Symptoms can include; diarrhoea, stomach aches and bloating, with Megan bravely admitting in her book: ‘The bathroom was my best friend when I was growing up’.

‘I’ve had my fair share of trolling, been called skeletal and anorexic. People need to lay off the weight comments and give those of us who suffer silently with digestive issues a break’.

In the book Megan speaks with incredible honesty about her difficult childhood and how she spent ‘years’ having many different tests before finally receiving a diagnosis.
