Question
Do you know of any links between ADD & celiac disease? I am a 36 yr-old male who has been formally diagnosed with the former, and is about to do testing to confirm the latter. Thank you.
As far as I am aware (I have no knowledge that) there is no relationship between Coelic's disease and ADHD.The one is an intestinal conditionn ,the other a brain condition. A diet factor is certainly recognised in Coeliac's disease but the diet factor in ADHD is not readily accepted.
