...In 2006, my mom and I were both diagnosed with Celiac Disease. This has been a huge struggle of ours and continues to be an ongoing battle. We have thoroughly researched the cause and effects of celiac disease. It all begins with gluten being the culprit. Eating gluten for people with celiac disease can be time consuming, expensive, and can cause numerous health issues. Originally, the human species lived depending only on animal protein, vegetables, fruits, seeds, and nuts. It wasn’t until approximately 9500 BC that the transition in agriculture began and humans started to eat carbohydrates and grains (grains being the producer of gluten). Gluten is a food protein that is found in wheat, barley, rye, and in some instances, oat. Celiac disease is described as a genetic autoimmune disorder in the digestive system of the small intestines. Gluten triggers the autoimmune system to respond to gluten because it considers the protein as harmful to the body. Celiac disease has grown over the last decade with a high statistics rate. Studies show that gluten intolerance for the healthy person is 1 in 33, and people with immediate relatives like parents, children, and siblings who are celiac is 1 in 22; those with relatives like aunts, uncles, and cousins who are celiac is 1 in 39 (Stohs). In 2011, it was stated that, “1% of Americans have been diagnosed with celiac disease, yet some people show no symptoms; statistics show that only 5% to 10% of cases are diagnosed” (Jaret). Celiac...
