Gluten Intolerance
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
Seeing a gastroenterologist is advisable when certain foods containing gluten repeatedly cause digestive discomfort, since they are the one who studies the response of the digestive system. Gluten intolerance is the body's reaction to this protein present in wheat, barley, and rye.
Common symptoms: bloating, abdominal pain, gas, diarrhea, or general discomfort after eating foods that contain gluten.
When to see a doctor? An evaluation is advisable before cutting out gluten on your own, in order to correctly identify the cause of the discomfort.
Which specialist treats it? The gastroenterologist evaluates these symptoms and the dietitian helps with dietary adjustments. If you suspect gluten is causing you discomfort, the wise thing is to discuss it with a professional before changing your diet.
