Those are great links... thanks!!

Yes, many people who have food sensitivities (i.e. gluten sensitivity) do experience malabsorption if they continue to eat the foods that they are sensitive to. That intestinal damage can sometimes be corrected very quickly and sometimes very slowly... The 'cascading symptoms' like anemia etc. can take a short period to get 'caught up' or a long time... it all depends on the person, the amount of damage, how strict they become with their diet, if they allocate all the foods that they are sensitive to... etc.

And yes, there can also be stomach acid issues that take time to correct (either too little or too much).

Some people may have sensitivities to either one... it's an individual thing more than a celiac or gluten sensitivity thing.

You've really hit the nail on the head for c.d. and g.s. many, many times in your post.

I really enjoyed the explanations at your site. It's all very well put and loads of information for people to mull over.

Awesome!!

Came back to edit: (Have you considered the possibility of having gluten sensitivity issues?)
