About Coealiac Disease, Coealiac Disease, sometimes called Coeliac Sprue, is a medical condition and is a permanent intestinal intolerance to dietary gluten. In Coeliac Disease the cells of the small bowel (intestine) are damaged. This causes a flattening of the tiny, finger like projections, called villi, which line the inside of the bowel. The function of the cells on normal villi is to breakdown and absorb nutrients in food. In Coeliac Disease, these cells become flat and inflamed and the surface area, which enables the absorption of nutrients and minerals from food, is seriously depleted. This leads to deficiencies in vitamins, iron, folic acid and calcium, because of poor absorption. Sugars, proteins and fats are often poorly absorbed as well. The only treatment needed is a gluten-free diet. In this diet wheat, rye, barley, triticale (wheat/rye hybrid grain) and possibly oats are completely eliminated. To be effective the diet must be strictly and permanently adhered to for life and should therefore only be begun after a proven diagnosis. |
