An ongoing autoimmune condition that affects the digestive tract is called celiac disease. Gluten, a substance present in wheat, barley, and rye, is what sets it off.

Children and adults may experience various and unique celiac disease signs.

Children’s symptoms could include

• Persistent vomiting
• Bloating and discomfort in the abdomen
• Vomiting
• Constipation
• Delayed puberty
• Headaches

Adult symptoms could consist of the following

• Bloating and discomfort in the abdomen
• Persistent vomiting
• Fatigue
• Anxiety or depression
• Aching joints

• When a person eats gluten, their immune system attacks the small intestine’s lining, especially the villi, which are tiny protrusions that resemble fingers and can cause irritation and inflammation. The villi must function correctly for the body to absorb nutrients properly.
• The precise cause is unclear, but it is thought to result from a genetic and environmental factors. People with a family history of the condition are more likely to get it.
• Viral infections, gastrointestinal infections, and specific medical procedures like surgery, pregnancy, and childbirth are examples of environmental variables that may cause celiac disease to develop.

Malnutrition: Malnutrition may come from nutrient malabsorption brought on by slight intestine damage.

Osteoporosis: The condition can hinder calcium and vitamin D intake, increasing the risk of osteoporosis and bone fractures.

Miscarriage and infertility: Women with neglected illnesses may have trouble getting pregnant or are more likely to miscarry.

Anemia: It may result in iron deficiency anemia, producing symptoms like weakness and exhaustion.

Intolerance to lactose: The damage to the small intestine can make it difficult to digest lactose.

Neurological conditions: Rarely, neurological conditions such as seizures, migraines, and neuropathy can develop due to celiac disease.

High chance of some cancers: According to some evidence, Untreated celiac disease may increase the chance of developing certain cancers, including lymphoma and small intestine cancer.
