What is Celiac Disease? Ep. 124
Have you ever wondered about the science behind Celiac disease, an autoimmune disorder that affects 1 in every 100 people worldwide? Join me as I share my personal struggle with the disease, discussing symptoms like chronic diarrhea, extreme weight loss, anemia, fatigue, and brain fog, and how it led me to a profound understanding of the disease. Get ready to learn about the direct link between gluten and Celiac disease, the damage it does to the small intestine, and how this affects nutrient absorption.
Going beyond understanding the disease, we will embark on a positive journey towards healing and living with Celiac disease. We’ll talk about how accurate testing and understanding of the disease can transform a diagnosis from a life sentence to a chance at a healthier, more conscious lifestyle. I'll share insights on my own healing process through a gluten free diet and other strategies to accelerate recovery.
An enlightening discussion, this episode promises to make you see Celiac disease not as a limitation, but as a stepping stone towards a healthier, more vibrant life. Let's navigate this journey together, towards managing and thriving with Celiac disease.
