Celiac disease can be extremely difficult to diagnose and most people suffer with poor health for a number of years before they are finally given a diagnosis.

Celiac disease is an autoimmune disease whereby ingestion of gluten prompts autoimmune destruction of the small intestine. The strange thing is, even though the small intestine can undergo severe tissue damage, many sufferers do not experience any digestive symptoms.

The majority of people with celiac disease experience abdominal boating, diarrhea or abdominal cramps. They are the lucky ones because a diagnosis usually arrives much sooner. A significant percentage of people experience non-digestive symptoms, such as fatigue, infertility, arthritis, anxiety, headaches, an under active thyroid gland (Hashimoto’s thyroiditis) or an increased risk of type 1 diabetes. This is because celiac disease causes heightened levels of inflammation in the body. Levels of glutathione become depleted and this can cause inflammatory harm to almost any part of the body.

The prevalence of celiac disease has risen dramatically in the last 100 years. If you have been suffering with poor health for some time, it might be wise to be tested. Taking a supplement of N-acetyl cysteine (NAC) is the most effective way to replenish glutathione and reduce inflammation.
