8. Headaches and Migraine
People with gluten intolerance may experience recurring severe headaches. One study found that 56% of people with gluten sensitivity experienced headaches.6Dimitrova AK;Ungaro RC;Lebwohl B;Lewis SK;Tennyson CA;Green MW;Babyatsky MW;Green PH; ‘Prevalence of Migraine in Patients with Celiac Disease and Inflammatory Bowel Disease.’ Headache, U.S. National Library of Medicine, pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23126519/. Like the other symptoms, headaches or migraines can develop suddenly often acting as a warning.
The gut is also called the second brain as it contains numerous nerve cells and is connected with the brain via the gut-brain axis. The gut flora also influences the mood and brain health. That’s why digestive conditions are often associated with brain symptoms like anxiety or migraines.
