6. Irritability and Behavioral Issues
One of the most common symptoms in children is irritability, which may be caused due to the child experiencing abdominal pain or digestive issues that they don’t understand.1Celiac Disease | Gluten Intolerance. MedlinePlus, U.S. National Library of Medicine, 3 Mar. 2021, medlineplus.gov/celiacdisease.html. This symptom isn’t specific to children, however.
Adults can experience a range of behavioral symptoms, which can include irritability, mood swings, depression, and even suicidal thoughts. These mood swings can range in intensity and regularity depending on how often gluten is consumed. Usually, symptoms will vanish within a few days of adopting a gluten-free diet.3‘Symptoms & Causes of Celiac Disease.’ National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, 1 Oct. 2020, www.niddk.nih.gov/health-information/digestive-diseases/celiac-disease/symptoms-causes.
