Gluten-free foods are trendy right now, but those with Celiac disease have higher than normal levels of antibodies, or infection-fighting cells, that attack gluten. When someone with Celiac disease ingests gluten - a protein found in wheat, rye, and barley - their body views the gluten as a foreign invader. The body then attacks the small intestine, limiting the number of nutrients a person absorbs from their food. Celiac disease is genetic, and as many as 1 in 133 Americans may have the condition. Understanding of the celiac disease symptoms is essential for the proper diagnosis of the condition.

Celiac Disease Risk Factors

Some people are at a higher risk of Celiac disease and gluten sensitivity, including:

People with European ancestors

Caucasians

People with type 1 diabetes

People with Down Syndrome

People with autoimmune disorders

People who are infertile

People who are pregnant

People with irritable bowel syndrome

Celiac Disease Symptoms

Celiac disease is often a diagnosis of elimination; only blood work or a biopsy performed by your doctor can determine if you have Celiac disease. Celiac disease shares symptoms with many other chronic digestive issues, including Crohn's disease, irritable bowel syndrome, colitis and diverticulitis. Symptoms of Celiac disease include:

Unexplained weight loss

Persistent flatulence

Chronic diarrhea or constipation

Stomach and muscle cramps

Joint pain

Anemia

Missed periods

Infertility

Numbness and tingling in the legs

Painful, itchy skin rash

Weak bones

Enamel loss

Delayed growth in children

Some people who have Celiac disease may have no symptoms at all.

When to See Your Doctor about Celiac Disease Symptoms

If you're experiencing a recurrence of these symptoms, see your doctor. He or she will likely suggest removing gluten entirely from your diet. You may find this to be rather difficult, as gluten is present in many foods in the Western diet. However, once you stop eating foods containing gluten, you may notice your symptoms clear up in as little as three days. Within three to six months, your small intestine should fully heal. Ceasing the intake of gluten is the only treatment for Celiac disease.

Having celiac means that exposure to gluten — a protein found in grains such as wheat, barley and rye — causes the immune system to attack the small intestine, damaging its lining and potentially preventing the body from absorbing enough important vitamins, minerals and nutrients from food.

Celiac disease is a digestive disorder triggered by gluten, a protein found in foods that contain wheat, barley or rye. When people who have celiac disease eat gluten, the result is a reaction in their small intestine that can lead to symptoms such as diarrhea, abdominal pain, bloating and weight loss.
