If you suffer from gluten intolerance or know of someone who has this problem, it is a serious problem one has to be aware of with everything one eats. Gluten intolerance or celiac can cause numerous problems to a person's system, such as either/or diarrhea and constipation, headaches, contact dermatitis just to name a few. Having this condition, it is surprising to know that the United States is one of the last countries to know much about this disease. The European Union is the well versed in this disease and makes the best pre-packaged ready to eat products and boxed mixes. If you want to know more about this disease, there are numerous websites out there. Doing a search under gluten intolerance or celiac disease will bring up a plethora or helpful sites and individual blogs from individuals who speak about their life with this disease. Blogs can be very helpful, for they can be support sites for those who are frustrated with this condition.
Unfortunately, there isn't a cure for this disease, other than watching your diet very carefully. Research labs have been working for years to come up with a cure for this disease and they are coming closer all the time, which is very good news for individuals and families with this disease. It is a genetic disease, so if you are diagnosed with it, which is done by blood tests or biopsy, I suggest you have the rest of your family tested also.
With this disease, the intestines are not able to digest gluten, particularly wheat gluten, therefore the body becomes malnourished due to the fact the body cannot absorb the nutrients needed for the body. Within the last year, research doctors have duplicated and isolated an enzyme that eliminates the toxicity of wheat gluten and protein. www.celiac.com/articles/21530/1/A-Sweet-Pill-For-Celiacs-to-Swallow-Progress-on-Enzyme-Therapy-for-Celiac-Diseases/page1.html
