What is Celiac disease: its causes, risk factors, symptoms, and treatment options.

by John Kauffman

There are currently as many as 3,000,000 Americans living with celiac disease, and as many as 83% of them go undiagnosed. Many people live with the symptoms of celiac disease for months, or years, unaware of the true underlying cause of their health problems. Contrary to popular belief, the main symptoms of celiac disease are not all digestive – there are a number of serious mental and physical symptoms as well. Unfortunately, the symptoms of many autoimmune diseases tend to overlap which makes it difficult to obtain an accurate diagnosis without going through extensive testing.
Many people do not have a complete understanding of what celiac disease is – this is true even for some of the people who have the disease! The purpose of this book is to provide a comprehensive education about celiac disease including its causes, risk factors, symptoms, and treatment options. You’ll also learn about the difference between celiac disease and non-celiac gluten sensitivity or intolerance. To give you a more detailed idea of what you’ll receive in this book, here is a list of subjects that will be
1.A brief introduction to celiac disease and relevant statistics
