Malabsorption symptoms are caused by an increase in the amount of unabsorbed nutrients passing through the gastrointestinal tract, or by nutritional deficiency due to inappropriate absorption. These symptoms may be related to celiac disease, but may also be caused by other health problems.
What is malabsorption?
Absorption failure is that you can not absorb essential nutrients from the small intestine to the blood flow.
What is the cause of malabsorption?
Malabsorption can be caused by various causes, including cystic fibrosis, lactose intolerance and celiac disease.
Malabsorption Symptoms include diarrhea, convulsions, frequently bulky stools, gas and flatulence.
How is diagnosis of malabsorption?
In most cases, malabsorption has a fundamental cause. For this reason, it is necessary to concentrate the examination in order to locate the root cause. Absorption is not a disease itself but a result of another condition such as celiac disease.
Unfortunately, as iron, some protein, vitamins and minerals are scarce, the condition becomes quite serious. As a result of these shortcomings, you may become malnourished and anemic.
Because celiac disease may cause malabsorption, we recommend that you investigate and treat this disease adequately before problems of malabsorption occur.
Celiac disease is certainly inherited. If you have conditions on direct relatives (mothers, fathers, etc.), there is a possibility that they will be handed to you, but it itself may develop as well.
The main cause of this disorder is the autoimmune response to specific food gluten. Once diagnosed, it is the only measure to follow strict gluten free diet avoiding foods such as bread, pasta, licorice, or foods prepared using wheat or wheat products.
