🧠 What is gluten? Why are so many people not afraid of it?

Gluten = a group of proteins → found in wheat, rye, and barley .
The only protein that humans cannot fully digest
This can lead to celiac disease → damage to the villi of the small intestine.
Common symptoms: bloating, abdominal pain, diarrhea
However, most people do not experience obvious intestinal symptoms → thinking they are "fine" → in fact, it is a "hidden injury".

⚠️ Why do you feel nothing when you eat bread? It's actually "numbness."

The " giadin " protein in gluten stimulates opioid receptors in the brain.
Similar to morphine effects → numbs intestinal discomfort
Result: The more you eat → the less you feel any problem → but your intestines are already slowly being damaged.

🔥 Hidden symptoms caused by gluten (non-gut)

system	Potential impact
blood glucose system	hypoglycemia, diabetes
immune system	Thyroiditis ( Hashimoto ), skin diseases (psoriasis, dermatitis)
Nervous system	Anxiety, depression, attention deficit, gray matter atrophy
Reproductive system	High prolactin levels can lead to irregular menstruation, excessive menstrual bleeding, and male sexual dysfunction.

Gluten-free products still contain grains → Increased blood sugar and insulin fluctuations
It may still contain herbicides (such as Glyphosate ).
It may still lead to obesity, diabetes, and intestinal problems.
