Dailey Bailey: Some People Really Do Have Issues With Gluten, They’re Not Just Imagining Them?

People with celiac disease can’t eat gluten because it causes them all sorts of problems . . . that’s a scientific fact. But there are PLENTY of people without that disease who claim that gluten bothers them.

Until now, it was basically the consensus that they were just imagining their symptoms. But it turns out that maybe, just maybe, some of them are actually telling the truth.

A new study out of Columbia University found that some people without celiac disease can have the same issues with gluten. That includes things like bloating, feeling tired after you eat, or having stomach pains.

The researchers believe there are about three million Americans without celiac disease who don’t quite have the body chemistry to process gluten.

Quote, “The symptoms reported by [these] individuals are not imagined, as some people have suggested. There is a biological basis for these symptoms.”
