Other symptoms
Although less severe than celiac disease, gluten intolerance, also known as non-celiac gluten intolerance, shows some of the same symptoms. However, gluten intolerance can still cause significant discomfort, with several of these symptoms may be frequently experienced by people with gluten intolerance. Although they are less frequent, additional symptoms of gluten intolerance are also possible.
These may include:
- Joint and muscle pain
- Leg or arm numbness
- Unexplained weight loss
- Iron-deficiency anemia
- ...
Many of these signs and symptoms appear soon after ingesting gluten. The precise combination of symptoms can change, though. When including gluten-containing foods in regular diets, those who report gluten sensitivity often experience the symptoms listed above.
