Celiac disease represents a condition in which the digestive system, mainly the small intestine, has an insufficiency in the metabolization of gluten, which we find in wheat, rye or barley. This deficiency is characterized by inflammation of the small intestine and its difficulty in absorbing nutrients. Whether we are overweight or not, clinical detection is necessary if we suspect we have it. Although only a small percentage (about 1%) of the population has celiac disease (women in a 2:1 ratio), many people have chosen to follow gluten-free weight loss diets even when they have been diagnosed negative.
