Dr. Robert Frachtman with Austin Gastro on Celiac Disease
Dr. Robert Frachtman explains what Celiac Disease is and how it differs from gluten sensitivity. Celiac Disease involves roughly 1% of the population and the most common symptoms are gas, cramping and diarrhea and can lead to very serious health complications. About 1.5% of the population actually has a sensitivity to gluten, but should not be confused with full-blown Celiac Disease, which can cause many more serious and significant health problems than those caused by gluten sensitivity.
