7. Celiac Disease

Celiac disease is a condition that basically means the patient has an intolerance to gluten. Gluten is a type of protein that is found in wheat, so it is commonly used in a very wide range of dishes. A person with Celiac disease that does consume gluten can experience pain in their stomach as well as other conditions including diarrhea and fatigue.
