Gut Feelings

Gut Feelings is a community project that raises awareness of histamine intolerance, an often-misunderstood condition that can quietly shape everyday life. Symptoms like anxiety, fatigue, bloating, rashes, or hormonal shifts can go unrecognised for years, leaving many people feeling isolated, confused, or dismissed. 
Rooted in both research and lived experience, Gut Feelings explores these challenges through a series of events, illustrations, and story-driven tools. From intimate dinners to herbal drink nights, each gathering offers a space to reflect, connect, and gently support those navigating food sensitivities. The accompanying website features an educational page, interactive tools for tracking ingredients, event highlights, and further details about the functional syrups. 
This is not a medical platform, but a social and emotional support system - using food and design to spark meaningful conversations. By combining storytelling, shared meals, and sensory design, Gut Feelings invites people to rethink what it means to eat differently, live attentively, and care for both body and community. 
The project continues to grow through both real-world events and an online presence, aiming to reshape how we talk about gut health-centering openness, curiosity, and care.
