Something that is really unknown for us is the diseases produced by a malfunction of our own body.
Celiacs are the ones who can’t stand gluten in their diet. Nowadays, medicine has worked on trying to figure out earlier if you were born with this painful disease. As Lactose intolerance, everything starts with uncontrollable abdominal pain, plus indigestion and dehydration that can turns to anemia in mostly all the cases. The body just can’t get the nutrients from the food that you eat and it stays in your intestine causing problems, in the case of dairy intolerance this happens because you don’t produce an enzyme that breaks the lactase structure (lactase is the type of sugar that the milk has) which makes everything that contains milk hurts you from the inside.
The consequences of not taking care of your diet if you are celiac or lactose intolerant can be mortal, because your body keeps too much sugar inside without being processed which can turns out to cause cancer.
Here in Chile, about four years ago, a research showed that 50% of the population has lactose intolerance and probably 90% of the humanity will experiment it.
Will you ask your doctor if you are allergic to food?
