You are having troubles like bloating, asthenia or tummy ache… Your health controls are fine in general but your doctor wanted to measure also your gluten intolerance.
Have you ever thought that you might be intolerant to gluten? If other indications like constipation or
diarrhea, paleness, weight loss, itchiness, head ache, oedema are seen, you can be gluten intolerant or you might be suffering from celiac disease caused by gluten.
Gluten is a protein group found in cereals, mainly in wheat. It is also abundant in barley, rye and oat. There are 30 types of proteins in wheat. When gluten and gliadin react with water, they form gluten. Normally, gluten can be easily digestible but for some people gluten intolerance might occur.
Celiac is a genetic disease, which can be seen at any age, where high sensitivity for gluten is observed. It is estimated that one out of every two hundred people is suffering from celiac disease. According to Ministry of Health there are almost 80 thousand people suffering from celiac disease. The only treatment of celiac is a lifelong lasting gluten free diet.
