Unfortunately for diagnosed patients, there is no recognized cure for celiac disease. What the individual needs to do instead is to completely change their diet. Some may think that changing a diet is no big deal and in fact, that may be true until it happens to them. Similar to many other aspects of life, nothing seems to be such a big deal or problem until it directly affects the person who thinks it's no big deal. This makes life difficult for people diagnosed with celiac disease. In addition to having to completely change their diet, they also have to deal with people who don't understand the disease and how serious a problem it is. A celiac disease diagnosis affects people's daily lives and limits what they can eat. Celiac disease is a multisystem disease. It causes the body's immune system to respond negatively to the protein contained in specific grains. "The immune system responds to these proteins because it thinks it is being attacked. It then builds antibodies to protect itself from these proteins and in turn those antibodies cause damage to the small intestine" (Bower). In life you don't realize that everything is wrong until, of course, you notice that something is wrong. For example, coming home from somewhere and walking through the front door like any other normal day and you don't realize that the house has been broken into until you notice that the back door has been kicked in. Celiac disease is very similar to the back door in the previous situation. Many people don't even realize they have this problem until their stomach begins to ache for longer periods. “Celiac disease, a multisystem disease, is one of the least diagnosed inherited autoimmune diseases.” What multisystem means is that…half the paper…one hundred percent. This disease is extremely complicated and time consuming, requiring tons of research and planning. Every meal must be thought about and anticipated. Gluten-free diets are one of the most difficult diets to follow in today's world. Works Cited Bower, Sylvia Llewelyn, Mary Kay Sharrett, and Steve Plogsted.
