Genetic Disorder : Celiac Disease

There are several varieties of people in the world. Some unfortunately have genetic disorders. An example of a genetic disorder is celiac disease. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder of the small intestine that occurs in genetically predisposed people of all ages. It was first founded in 1887 in Europe, specifically in London. This disorder can cause many unwanted symptoms. For instance, abdominal bloating and pain, chronic diarrhea, vomiting, constipation, weight loss, and pale, foul-smelling, or fatty stool. The exact cause of this disease is not very well-known. However, it seems the genes within the cell that causes celiac disease include first-degree relative genes with the condition. Because the cause of this disease is not clear, the treatment only found so far is a gluton-free diet. If someone is diagnosed with this disorder they must avoid gluton foods. This includes all forms of wheat: rye, barley, and triticale must be eliminated. If any of the types of foods stated above are consumed they become toxic to those who with the disease. It only is toxic to one out of one hundred and thirty-three people. The reason for this is because that is just how common this disorder is. Western Europe and the United states, however, experience this disease mostly because it is most found in those areas. Even though the symptoms can not cause death, the mortality is three times higher than those of general population. Childhood though, suffers long-term mortality. This disease is not fun and unfortunate for all who have it.
