Celiac Disease Treatment at RedRiver Health and Wellness
How Celiac Disease Develops
Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder where your immune system attacks your small intestine in response to gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye. When you consume gluten, your immune system triggers inflammation in your digestive tract, progressively damaging the intestinal lining. Over time, this damage prevents nutrient absorption, leading to deficiencies and a cascade of symptoms throughout your body.
The intestinal damage from celiac disease can affect far more than digestion; it can also affect nutrient absorption, immune function, bone health, and even neurological function. Many people suffer for years before diagnosis because symptoms are attributed to other conditions or dismissed as IBS.
Common symptoms of celiac disease include:
- Chronic diarrhea or constipation
- Bloating, cramping, and abdominal pain
- Unexplained fatigue and low energy
- Anemia and iron deficiency
- Bone loss and joint pain
- Skin rashes and dermatitis
- Hair loss
- Nutrient deficiencies (B12, folate, iron, vitamin D)
- Brain fog and difficulty concentrating
- Mood disturbances (anxiety, depression)
Some symptoms of Celiac disease may include:
Chronic diarrhea
Anemia
Bloating
Swollen ankles
Skin rashes
Excessive bruising and bleeding
