| Celiac disease - nutritional considerations : Celiac disease is an immune disorder passed down through families. Gluten is a protein found in wheat, barley, or rye. It may also be found in some medicines. When a person with celiac disease eats or drinks anything containing gluten, the immune system responds by damaging the lining of the small intestine. This affects the body's ability to absorb nutrients. Carefully following a gluten-free diet helps prevent symptoms of the disease. | |
