My name is Kelly Husk and I am the founder of Life Beyond Gluten.

I was personally diagnosed with Hashimoto’s Hypothyroidism in 2016. Hashimoto’s Hypothyroidism is an autoimmune disorder where the body is attacking its own thyroid tissue, because of the structural similarities between gluten and the thyroid hormones produced.

My Hashimoto’s symptoms began when I was in middle school. I suffered from a growing list of symptoms all throughout my high school and college years, finally hitting their peak when I was 24 years old. All I wanted was relief!

So my husband and I started out eating gluten-free, dairy-free, and sugar-free. For the first time in my life, I feel energetic and absolutely amazing! My husband and I are now gluten free for life!

When I started this journey, I quickly realized that there was not a place that would tell me everything I needed to know to live a gluten-free life. This is my inspiration for Life Beyond Gluten. People eating gluten-free need a great support system and a place to get all types of information about gluten-free products, recipes, tips, restaurants, and more!
