Celiac Disease

Celiac Disease

What is Celiac Disease?

Celiac disease is when your immune system attacks your own tissues when you eat gluten. This damages your small intestine, which affects your absorption of nutrients.
Gluten is a protein found in wheat, rye, and barley. Gluten is found in foods like bread, pasta, pizza, and cereal. It is also in many other foods, including some sauces and dressings.

What Are the Symptoms of Coeliac Disease?

Symptoms of celiac disease are triggered by eating gluten-containing foods, these symptoms include:
  • Unpleasant smelling diarrhea or constipation
  • Stomach aches
  •  Bloating and gas
  • Indigestion
  • Tiredness (fatigue)
  • Weight loss
  • An itchy rash
  • Infertility
  • Nerve damage that may affect co-ordination, balance and speech

What Causes Celiac Disease?

Celiac disease is an autoimmune condition where the immune system mistakes substances found inside gluten as a threat to the body and attacks them. This damages the surface of the small intestine and impairs its function in absorbing nutrients.
The reason behind this remains unclear but a combination of genetics and the environment appear to play a part.

How is Celiac Disease Diagnosed?

Your doctor will run tests to confirm the diagnosis of celiac disease.
These tests should be done before you stop eating foods containing gluten:
  • Blood test – to check for antibodies that your body forms after eating gluten
  • Biopsy – If a blood test shows a lot of antibodies, the doctor will need to perform an endoscopy with a biopsy. This procedure involves putting a thin tube with a tiny camera down your throat. When the tube is in your small intestine, they will take a small tissue sample. Then the tissue will be examined under a microscope to check for any signs of damage.
If you are already on a gluten-free diet, your doctor might do other tests to see if you are likely to have celiac disease.

What is the Treatment for Celiac Disease?

The only treatment is to avoid gluten entirely and have a gluten-free diet. Your doctor will guide you on how to change your eating habits and your food choices and how to understand labels on foods. Your doctor may also refer you to a dietician for additional help.
A gluten-free diet includes avoiding rye, wheat, barley, and sometimes oats. These ingredients appear in many common foods, including:
  • Bread, pasta, pastries, and cereal
  • Many sauces, spreads, and condiments
  • Beers, ales, lagers, and malt vinegar

What Are the Complications of Celiac Disease?

Complications of celiac disease usually arise if you continue to consume gluten. These complications include:

    I recently had my root canals done by Dr. Padma Gandi, and I must say that she is best in her field. She quickly did my multiple root canals, and was very careful and focused while doing them. The good part is that Dr. Padma was so considerate of the pain I was feeling, and tried her best that I wont feel it during the procedure or afterwards. I highly highly recommend her for any dental procedures.

    Aurrora is the best laser technician I have ever tried. I have tried so many laser places before but it never works until my friend told me about charm day surgery and specifically with aurroa and I have never changed my laser place or technician again because the results were amazing. Thank you aurroa
