Interesting possible source of celiac and our autoimmune system
I was sent an article which I copied a small portion here. Its worth looking into IMO. To me explains why the poor working immune system.
I copied a part of an article by George Citroner:
Celiac disease has long been attributed to an overactive immune response to gluten. However, a study recently published in Immunology and Cell Biology suggests there is a reduction in immune activity that starts much earlier and runs much deeper.
The research focused on a type of immune cell called CD4 helper T cells. These white blood cells are to immune cells what sergeants are to soldiers—they give orders and help coordinate the body’s immune response, fight infections, and support antibody production.
The surprise wasn’t that these cells were overactive. They were actually weaker, producing less of a key immune signal called interleukin-2, dividing more slowly, and less likely to survive. This pattern held regardless of sex, how recently someone was diagnosed, or how long someone had been gluten-free.
