Constipation
While celiac disease might trigger diarrhea in a few people, it might lead to constipation in the others. This condition can damage the villi of your intestine, which are finger-like, tiny projections that hold responsibility for nutrient absorption. When foods travel through your digestive tract, the villi cannot absorb nutrients fully and might usually get excessive moisture from stools. This results in hardened stool which is hard to pass. Even with a gluten-free diet, it is difficult to avoid constipation. Thus, it is better to meet your doctor for better treatments. [5]
