What to do if you are Celiac?

March 10th, 2010 Linda No comments

Paul Smith from www.glutenfreehealth.net explains what to do if you or someone you know is celiac
Recognizing celiac disease can be difficult because some of its symptoms are similar to those of other diseases. Celiac disease can be confused with irritable bowel syndrome, iron-deficiency anemia caused by menstrual blood loss, inflammatory bowel disease, diverticulitis, intestinal infections, and chronic fatigue syndrome. As a result, celiac disease has long been underdiagnosed or misdiagnosed. As doctors become more aware of the many varied symptoms of the disease and reliable blood tests become more available, diagnosis rates are increasing.
-Blood Tests
-Intestinal Biopsy
-Dermatitis Herpetiformis
-Screening

*** The only treatment for celiac disease is a gluten-free diet ****

What is Celiac Disease?

February 28th, 2010 Linda 1 comment

Paul Smith from www.glutenfreehealth.net explains what is celiac/coliac disease.
Celiac disease is a digestive disease that damages the small intestine and interferes with absorption of nutrients from food.
People who have celiac disease cannot tolerate gluten, a protein in wheat, rye, and barley.
Gluten is found mainly in foods but may also be found in everyday products such as medicines, vitamins, and lip balms.
Symptoms of celiac disease vary from person to person:
* abdominal bloating and pain
* chronic diarrhea
* vomiting
* constipation
* pale, foul-smelling, or fatty stool
* weight loss
