Nutrient Deficiencies – How Celiac Disease Causes So Many Different Illnesses<\/h2>\n
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

When hearing that celiac disease can cause over 300 symptoms, people sometimes react with incredulity. How can one illness cause so many problems?<\/p>\n

The answer lies in Nutrient Deficiencies. As children, we are taught that “we are what we eat.” This is true, but there is a catch. We are what we eat, AND ABSORB. If our body has the nutrients it needs, it functions properly.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, the immune response to the presence of gluten leads to intestinal inflammation, thickening and damage. This limits nutrient absoprtion. The body systems that dysfunction depend on which nutrients are missing. Basically, when we do not have what we need, things go wrong. And a lot can go wrong, which is why there are so many symptoms related to celiac disease.<\/p>\n

Doctors are taught to look for up to five specific symptoms to make a diagnosis in most cases. While many are getting the information that celiac disease is marked by many different possible symptoms, since they do not understand nutrition, they are ill equipped to identify subtle, or in many cases, overt, symptoms of deficiencies. This is why they rely on gastrointestinal symptoms to identify people who may have celiac disease, and why they miss most people.<\/p>\n

The key to identifying and treating celiac disease is to recognize the subtle signs and symptoms of nutritional deficiencies. Neither the public, nor Western medical doctors or nurses are taught about nutrition. It is assumed that people absorb nutrients properly, so the focus is only placed on getting the nutrients into the mouth.<\/p>\n

Dietitians focus on nutrition, but they do not diagnose patients. This means no one on the front line of medicine, no one who makes a medical diagnosis, understands nutrient deficiencies or their symptoms. Instead of referring people to dietitians or prescribing foods that will help, ineffective medicines and surguries are employed. The underlying problems are not fixed, so the patients stay sick, worsen or die.<\/p>\n

Obesity is one such sickness. At any point in time, 1\/3 of Americans are on a diet. Calorie reduction is the goal, but functional nutrient deficiencies have been revealed to cause obesity. Egyptian researchers found women who were functionally micronutrient deficient were 80.8% more likely to be overweight\/obese than women who were not deficient. Other studies support these findings. You can be overweight and malnourished. Meanwhile, 100 million Americans are cutting calories without considering nutrient deficiencies…<\/p>\n

We must be our own health advocates and educate ourselves about nutrient deficiencies in order to help ourselves and our doctors and receive the best care possible.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Tip:<\/strong>\u00a0Review the 27 Nutrient Deficiencies listed on the Health Guide. You can search the Nutrient Deficiency Index<\/a> or review the Nutrient Deficiency Category<\/a>. Note the symptoms of each and the dietary sources of foods highest in those nutrients. If you are experiencing a deficiency, follow the 6 step process listed for correcting the deficiency. An understanding of deficiencies, and early recognition of symptoms will help you correct problems before they become severe. You will also know which deficiency you are prone to developing.<\/p>\n
