Not necessarily - it just seems that way because wheat figures so heavily in the Western diet.
I don't think Celiac is likely, but you can just not eat wheat for a week and see if it makes a difference. (Read every label if you're trying that.)

A week won't do it on the diet change, I had to go nearly 3 months before my system got back to normal. Amd Vivtek is right if you want to test this just read every label and do some research for example soy sauce is out, but it just isn't obvious.
As far as this being a possibility, it doesn't sound right, but since it is pretty easy to test for the next tiem you have a blood test you can have them check it if you want.
Paleo eating excludes refined sugars completely, and asks you to reduce fruit. Meat and veg, nuts and seeds, some fruit, no grains, no dairy.
> A week won't do it on the diet change,
Totally agree here. And switching from a traditional high-carb, low-fat diet to paleo leads to 2 or 3 weeks of feeling like crap. We're 5 weeks into our Paleo Challenge at the gym I own, and most people are feeling like a million bucks. We do our best to impress upon them that the first 2-3 weeks will be difficult.
I eat to manage my glycemic index now, but I unfortunately can't honestly split what is that part and what is getting off of gluten, I just know both have proved necessary to me. But of the two, for someone with celiac getting off the gluten is by far the more important.
I do stick to the Kikkoman name brand, but this turns out to be easy, it's the golden standard. Usually if it's not Kikkoman, it's fake soy sauce anyhow which is also safe.
