2. Bloating
Another common symptom of celiac disease is bloating. This is another symptom that is often written off by people experiencing it. Bloating can be caused by any number of things, which is why many people tend to ignore this symptom when it appears. Celiac disease causes the digestive tract to become inflamed. When the digestive tract is inflamed, it may cause a person to feel bloated.
In addition, this inflammation can cause several other adverse issues with the digestive tract. There have been several studies conducted that report that the majority of individuals who suffer from celiac disease experience bloating. This bloated feeling may last for several days at a time. When gluten is removed from the diet of a person with celiac disease, the bloating tends to disappear. In fact, even people who do not have celiac disease may experience bloating that is caused by gluten.
