In simple terms, the body is unable to break down gluten into soluble proteins. So instead of metabolizing it correctly, the body treats it as a foreign invader and produces antibodies to combat it.

Oddly enough, that reaction can take many forms and masquerade as dozens of other things — skin diseases, neurological disorders, autoimmune diseases, digestive disorders and other undiagnosed conditions like chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia!
