What Is Celiac Disease

Celiac Disease is a digestive and autoimmune disorder dealing with an intolerance to gluten. Gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley and rye, causes pain and damage in the lining of the small intestine, making it harder for vital nutrients to be absorbed. Some even suffer from Dermatitis Herpetiformis, more commonly known as, “The Celiac Rash from Hell.” If left untreated, Celiac Disease can lead to serious health risks. Developing anxiety and depression is common among the Celiac community removing all the joy from eating.
