Gluten Intolerance Symptoms
Resemble Celiac Disease Symptoms

Gluten intolerance symptoms occur whenever you consume grains or foods that contain gluten.  Surprisingly, these symptoms can resemble Celiac disease symptoms.  However, gluten Intolerance symptoms will usually precede Celiac disease symptoms which will be the more serious of the two health problems.

Both will require some form of Celiac disease treatment

And an effective Celiac disease treatment will be diagnosing that you are indeed gluten intolerant and then looking into adopting a gluten free lifestyle.  Which will mean understanding all of the foods and drinks that may contain gluten.  And it will almost always involve learning how to heal your gut.

Are You Gluten Intolerant?

Basically, you are gluten intolerant when you have a difficult time digesting grains that contain gluten.  Gluten is composed of inflammatory proteins called glutenin and gliadin.  And this type of gluten will be found in wheat, rye, and in barley.

Celiac Disease Symptoms

Celiac disease symptoms are very similar to the symptoms of gluten intolerance.  It's just a more serious form of being gluten intolerant and when gluten is consumed it will actually trigger your body's immune system to attack!

Celiac disease is caused by the inflammatory interaction of gliadin which is a gluten protein found in wheat, rye, and barley.

  • This inflammation flattens the lining of the small intestine and impedes your small intestine's ability to absorb nutrients from your food.
  • This will eventually create a lot of nutritional deficiencies which will lead to other health problems.

Celiac disease can run in families and is more common then most people think. 

And if left untreated, Celiac disease could result in more serious health complications like Type 1 Diabetes.

And the only way to effectively deal with Celiac disease symptoms is a strict gluten free diet.
