For those who suffer from it daily, gluten intolerance is no joke.
I’m so sick of reading articles written by people — who quite obviously have never personally experienced gluten intolerance themselves — calling it a “fad diet” or a mostly mental “self-fulfilling prophecy” for paranoid foodies who have decided to exclude wheat from their diets based on some random “food anxiety”.
First, let’s sum up what we’re talking about here. Celiac Disease is an an autoimmune disease; that means the body has an immune reaction to eating the protein gluten. The person ends up getting attacked by their own immune system. Sufferer Jordan Reasoner summed it up really well:
Celiac Disease triggers a war inside your body… Autoimmune diseases “arise from inappropriate immune response of the body against substances and tissues normally present in the body.”
I really like that word “inappropriate”… I agree it’s inappropriate that my immune system, which is supposed to protect me from the outside world, is actually mistaking some part of my body as an evil pathogen and attacking my healthy tissue.
For people who have been diagnosed with the full-blown disease, not eating gluten to a Celiac is like a diabetic’s insulin requirement. If a Celiac eats gluten, it could literally kill them.
