Celiac disease is a chronic autoimmune disease, i.e. severe intolerance of the organism to gluten, an ingredient found in wheat, barley and rye, which causes damage to the digestive system. 10 Signs That You Are allergic to gluten.
It can be detected through a blood test, after which the diagnosis is made.
Experts say that eliminating gluten from the diet is a real trend today, but we need to check if it is really the cause of our health problems.
Elimination diet
If you suspect that gluten is harming your health, it is recommended to follow an elimination diet for 4 weeks. During this period of time, you must completely eliminate all products containing even the smallest amount of gluten from your diet. Check which everyday foods hide traces of gluten.
After 4 weeks, reintroduce gluten into your diet and then study how your body reacts.
If you felt better during the elimination, health problems eased or disappeared, and then returned after reintroducing gluten - it is possible that your body is hypersensitive to gluten.
Given that celiac disease or gluten sensitivity is difficult to recognize because the symptoms of these conditions often overlap with those of other diseases, this type of elimination test could help in making a correct and timely diagnosis.
10 symptoms of gluten sensitivity:
- Constant feeling of bloating and gas

- Nausea and vomiting
- Pale stool
