Do certain foods cause you to have cramps, bloating, diarrhea or nausea?
Celiac disease—also known as gluten intolerance—is an autoimmune disease trigged by eating gluten, present in wheat, rye and barley. The body’s immune system responds abnormally to gluten, damaging the lining of the small intestine and reducing absorption of certain nutrients.
Nearly 1% of the population suffers from celiac disease. Women are two to three times more likely to be affected.
