For the last several years, a gluten-free diet has been all the rage, despite those who claim that the only reason for a gluten-free diet is if you have celiac disease. Celiac disease is a serious autoimmune disorder that affects the entire body. But it’s not the only reason for going gluten free. Gluten sensitivity is a condition distinct from celiac disease, and it has similar symptoms to celiac disease. Many people don’t realize that they have gluten sensitivity because their symptoms may not be related to the gut. Although some people experience gastrointestinal distress as a symptom, many others experience symptoms that are further in range. Symptoms can include canker sores, breakouts, joint pain, and neurological issues.

If you feel out of sorts, especially after you eat, then get a diagnosis for your symptoms. Gluten sensitivity is treatable—and getting a solid diagnosis is the first step.
