What is gluten intolerent?

A gluten intolerant person is someone who's body can't tolerate gluten. Gluten is found in wheat, rye and barley but most gluten intolerant people also avoid oats due to contamination with wheat during transport.

This intolerance isn't deadly, but does effect your body. If you think you may be gluten intolerant you should see a doctor to be tested. You could end up having celiac disease which can cause all sorts of intestinal damage among other things and even raise your risk for cancer.

Symptoms of gluten intolerance include: bloating, flatulence and/or burping, adominal pain, joint pain, itchy rash, constipation and/or diarrhoea. You may have all or even none of these and turn out to have Celiac Disease so particularly if there is a family history of gluten intolerance or Celiac Disease you should get yourself tested by a doctor.

If you test negative to Celiac Disease but have any of the above symptoms, try a gluten free diet (remember you must completely eliminate gluten from the diet - not just cut down) for 6 weeks to see if things improve. If the symptoms disappear, then you know that you are gluten intolerant.

There is no cure for gluten intolerance or Celiac Disease, you just avoid gluten for the rest of your life - and believe me it is worth it.

Is there a correlation between wheat gluten allergies and nose bleeds?

If you feel that your sinuses and nose becomes affected by your wheat allergies, it is possible for there to be a link with the nose bleeds. This is possible because allergies tend to inflame the mucus membrane lining in your nasal passages and sinus cavities, which can also result in damage to these linings. When your mucus membrane linings become damaged you get nose bleeds.

I found a very good product for nose bleeds due to this condition- SinusWars5. Also you should definitely start taking medication for your allergies as it can lead to a sinus infection if you don't treat them.
