   Symptoms of wheat intolerance may include fatigue, memory loss, sleep disruption, allergies, muscle and joint pain, high blood pressure, asthma, headaches, visual disturbances, obesity, chronic digestive disorders, ulcers, food allergies, diarrhea/constipation, inability to absorb vital nutrients, parasitic infections, intestinal dysbiosis (unbalanced normal bacterial count), sinusitis, candidiasis, hypo/hyperthyroid, learning disabilities such as hyperactivity and attention deficit, and menstrual/hormonal difficultiesjust to name a few. Over-consumption of wheat can also lead to a sensitized intestinal tract, which is a big contributor to personal discomfort. At this time, I understand there's a cascade of deterioration as follows:
   Normal digestive tract then
   over-consumption of wheat then
   intestinal dysbiosis then
   heightened intestinal immune response then
   degradation of the intestinal lining then
   pancreatic dysfunction (insulin and digestive enzyme deficiency) then
   parasitic infection susceptibility then
   inability to absorb micro-nutrients then
   absorption of un-digested, antigenic proteins ultimately leading to
   degraded health, lost vitality, and even chronic sickness and disease.

   A symptom is something the patient feels and reports, while a sign is something other people, such as the doctor detect. For example, pain may be a symptom while a rash may be a sign. The most common signs and symptoms of a wheat allergy include:

   
   

   * Allergic rhinitis - nasal congestion
   
   * Anaphylaxis
   
   * Asthma
   
   * Atopic dermatitis (eczema)
   
   * Diarrhea
   
   * Mouth irritation and possible swelling
   
   * Nausea
   
   * Throat irritation and possible swelling
   
   * Urticaria - hives, an itchy rash (possible swelling of the skin)
   
   * Vomiting
   
   * Watery and/or itchy eyes
   
   * Bloated stomach
