According to the National Institutes of Health, celiac disease is the most common food sensitive digestive disorder in the United States affecting approximately 3 million people. Celiac disease is an inherited autoimmune reaction to gluten, a protein found in wheat, rye, oats and barley. Celiac disease shows up at any age and causes a variety of health conditions, potentially affecting every system in the body. From autism to irritable bowel syndrome, acid reflux to depression, miscarriage to obesity, the type of manifestations vary depending on the individual. Diabetes has been linked to gluten sensitivity and the gluten-free diet is now prescribed to help diabetics regulate their blood sugar. In addition, the gluten-free diet has been shown to help people control their weight.

Recognizing a Killer: New medical Guide Aids Diagnosis of Celiac Disease

 

 

Gluten Free Works, Inc. announces the highly anticipated release of  "Recognizing Celiac Disease."  This authoritative work is a manual created to help clinicians recognize over 300 signs, symptoms, associated disorders and complications that directly or indirectly result from gluten sensitivity and celiac disease. 

 

"Recognizing Celiac Disease" answers the call of the federal government and health organizations for a method of recognizing and diagnosing celiac disease and gluten sensitivity.

 

The National Institutes of Health estimates celiac disease affects up to 1% of United States population, over 3 million people. Gluten sensitivity affects untold millions more.

 

Celiac disease is an autoimmune reaction to gluten, protein fragments found in wheat, barley, rye, and oats.  Celiac disease manifests in a variety of health conditions affecting every system in the body.  From autism to irritable bowel syndrome, acid reflux to depression, miscarriage to obesity, the manifestations vary depending on the individual. 

 

The average time to diagnosis in Europe is 2 to 3 weeks. However, in the United States diagnosis averages 10 years.
