University of Chicago Celiac Disease Center

"97% of people with celiac disease don't know they have it!"
"Symptoms include chronic diarrhea and/or constipation,
abdominal bloating and pain, fatigue and irritability.
"Doctors often fail to diagnose the disease in adults.
An average child visits eight pediatricians before being
correctly diagnosed. Undiagnosed celiac patients are at
greater risk of serious illnesses like osteoporosis,
anemia, infertility, and cancer."
