10. Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
There is a startling amount of cases and studies that link celiac disease and the development of ADHD. Even more startling, studies have shown that individuals with both conditions who adopted a gluten-free lifestyle experienced a marked improvement in their ADHD symptoms.8Niederhofer, Helmut. ‘Association of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and celiac disease: a brief report.’ The primary care companion for CNS disorders vol. 13,3 (2011): PCC.10br0110 4: doi:10.4088/PCC.10br01104
This improvement was also clinically proven, with subjects taking part in focus and attention tests before and after the experiment. Their results after initiating a gluten-free diet showed positive changes.
