You Bastards!

So I am starving! I could of swore that I had some Gorilla Munch in my office to eat for breakfast this morning but I forgot that I ate the last of it yesterday. So, I went to the cafe we have here at work and all they have are sandwiches and SHIT! I AM NOT GOING TO EAT CHIPS FOR BREAKFAST. I am extremely frustrated right now as they don't stock gluten free items for breakfast in the vending machine. BTW the grill was closed for breakfast. Why the hell do I cry about this. Its just so F!@#$% up! If I want something to eat I have to either eat chips, a candy bar or nuts. Oh or leave work and find something at some fast food place. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! This is so inconvienient! What did I do to deserve this?

What is Celiac Disease?

Celiac disease is a disease of the small intestine. The small intestine is a 22 foot long tube that begins at the stomach and ends at the large intestine (colon). The first 1-1/2 feet of the small intestine (the part that is attached to the stomach) is called the duodenum, the middle part is called the jejunum, and the last part (the part that is attached to the colon) is called the ileum. Food empties from the stomach into the small intestine where it is digested and absorbed into the body. While food is being digested and absorbed, it is transported by the small intestine to the colon. What enters the colon is primarily undigested food. In celiac disease, there is an immunological (allergic) reaction within the inner lining of the small intestine to (gluten) that are present in wheat, rye, barley and, to a lesser extent, in oats. The immunological reaction causes inflammation that destroys the lining of the small intestine. This reduces the absorption of dietary nutrients and can lead to symptoms and signs of nutritional, vitamin, and mineral deficiencies.
