SYMPTOMS OF CELIAC DISEASE Celiac disease is not, as many believe, only a child's illness, but can affect people well into adulthood. The disease can occur in adults in highly variable fashion: from classic form with severe gastrointestinal disorders and an impaired absorption of all components of the food, even less dramatic forms with modest intestinal disorders such as occasional episodes of diarrhea or sometimes constipation, bloating, nausea, dyspepsia. Are not infrequent events even more devious caused by the more limited uptake defects and without intestinal symptoms such as, for example, anemia, bone pain, easy to fracture or skeletal deformities, cramps, tingling, difficulty in clotting of the blood even after modest trauma , leg edema, abnormalities of the menstrual cycle. A correct and timely diagnosis is very important.
