Celiac disease is an autoimmune, gastric disorder that’s triggered after eating something with gluten (a protein found in wheat and other grains such as rye and barley). In such a situation, the body reacts excessively to the protein and damages the villi, small finger-like projections present all along the wall of the small intestine. The symptoms of celiac disease generally vary from case to case and are different in adults and children. The most common symptoms of celiac disease for adults are fatigue, diarrhea, and weight loss. They might also experience abdominal pain, bloating and gas, constipation, nausea, and vomiting. However, the majority of adults facing celiac disease have symptoms that are not related to the digestive system, celiac disease is a genetic disorder as it generally run in families. Those who have a parent, child, or sibling with celiac disease, are at greater risk of getting it. Though it is not 100% sure that having the genes for a celiac disease means that one will get it. In some cases, any stressful event like a viral infection, surgery, or some emotional trauma can also trigger this disease. Sometimes, it has a tendency to happen after pregnancy. Celiac disease is most common in Caucasians and people who have or are suffering from other diseases such as type 1 diabetes, Down syndrome, Turner syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, or Addison’s disease.
