Benefits of A Celiac Diet?
Having Celiac disease requires you to follow
a strict gluten free diet. When followed there
are many benefits. Following a gluten free
diet for at least one year has been shown to
improve symptoms such as diarrhea, fatigue,
headaches, and abdominal pain in more
than 90% of people.
Eating gluten free allows the small intestine to
heal and return to normal function. This may
take some time, being vigilant about avoiding
gluten is crucial.
Nutrient deficiencies are prevalent in people
with celiac disease due to poor absorption
in the damaged small intestine. Following
a gluten free diet with help with healing
and absorbing nutrients once again.
