About Glutino Glutino & Gluten Free Pantry is a manufacturer and distributor specializing in gluten free products. These days nearly everyone is on a restricted diet of one sort or another. However, one of the biggest surprises is that nearly 3 million people in the United States have Celiac Disease and that it is one of the most under-diagnosed diseases in the Country. Celiac Disease came to the forefront last year when the National Institutes of Health (NIH) convened a panel of experts to present the scientific evidence about celiac disease. This 3-day meeting led to the NIH Consensus Report, which concluded that as many as one in every 100 Americans may suffer from this disease. Celiac Disease is a digestive disorder that is triggered by eating the protein, gluten, which is found in the grains wheat, rye and barley. Thereis no cure for the disease, but it can be controlled through strict avoidance of foods that contain gluten. The increased recognition of Celiac Disease means that thousands of people with those symptoms may finally get the right test and the right treatment. With a full line of more than 60 gluten-free meals, snacks, breads, mixes and more to choose from, there's a best-selling product to be enjoyed at every meal, family celebration or even as a snack on the run. In fact, Glutino's gluten-free products are so tasty, it's often impossible to tell the difference compared to their traditional made-with-gluten versions. You can finally enjoy the foods you crave for breakfast, lunch, dinner and anything in between without fear of food allergies. Celiac Disease & Your Health What is Celiac Disease? Celiac disease is a digestive disease that damages the small intestine and interferes with absorption of nutrients from food. People who have celiac disease cannot tolerate gluten, a protein in wheat, rye, and barley. When people with celiac disease eat foods or use products containing gluten, their immune system responds by damaging or destroying villi-the tiny, fingerlike protrusions lining the small intestine. Villi normally allow nutrients from food to be absorbed through the walls of the small intestine into the bloodstream. Without healthy villi, a person becomes malnourished, no matter how much food one eats. What are the symptoms? Symptoms vary from person to person, which can make celiac disease even more challenging to diagnose. These symptoms will occur after eating foods containing gluten. In some cases, the symptoms are severe, while others don't even notice the symptoms. Symptoms include: Digestive problems: Weight loss Abdominal swelling and bloating Abdominal cramps Diarrhea Constipation Vomiting Muscle cramps Joint pain Skin rash Fatigue Celiac disease has been linked to other health-related problems including: Osteoporosis Infertility Miscarriages Anemia Type 1 Diabetes Depression Thyroid Disease What are the causes of celiac disease? Celiac disease is both a disease of malabsorption - meaning nutrients are not absorbed properly - and an abnormal immune reaction to gluten. Celiac disease is genetic, meaning itruns in families. Sometimes the disease is triggered-or becomes active for the first time-after surgery, pregnancy, childbirth, viral infection, or severe emotional stress. How is it diagnosed? If you suspect you have celiac disease, consult your doctor as only he or she can confirm the diagnosis. Your physician will review your medical history with you, and ask about family members who have celiac disease, and the symptoms you have been experiencing and the length of time. Next, they will do a thorough physical exam. Then your physician will likely request a blood t
