10 Signs that May Indicate a Gluten Allergy

Swelling of the body can be a side effect of taking in gluten when one is allergic to it. Especially if you have swelling in the face and hands, this is something that can cause great alarm when first experienced. The swelling that happens to the body is caused by the allergic reaction and receptors that are coming into direct contact with the gluten that has entered the body. Some people have a chance of finding relief in some antihistamines, although these are not a cure and gluten should be avoided if swelling does occur.
