Coeliac Disease is an intestinal disorder caused by an intolerance to gluten, a
component of wheat, rye, barley and oats. Gluten contains a protein called alpha-gliadin.
In people with Coeliac Disease, this protein causes damage to the mucous lining of the
intestine, thus impairing the body’s ability to absorb vital nutrients. This leads to
deficiencies of vitamins, folic acid, iron, calcium, carbohydrates, proteins, and fats.
Without these essential nutrients, malnutrition will occur despite an adequate diet.
Coeliac Disease can affect adults and children. The first signs are usually diarrhoea,
weight loss and anaemia. Other signs include nausea, abdominal bloating, large and frequent
pale or light yellow foul smelling bowel movements that float; depression, fatigue,
irritability, muscle cramps and wasting; and joint or bone pain. Sometimes there is
also a red itchy skin rash (dermatitis herpetiformis). Young children and infants
may have stunted growth, vomiting, poor appetite and mouth ulcers.
Those with Coeliac Disease may have an increased risk of osteoporosis, and bone
density tests are advised. Coeliac Disease also causes malabsorption of B Complex
vitamins especially folic acid, vitamin B6 and B12; the fat soluble vitamins A, D,
E and K and the minerals iron, calcium, selenium and zinc.
Dietary Recommendations
All gluten must be removed from the diet. Do not eat any products that
contain barley, oats, rye or wheat. Rice, corn, buckwheat and millet are
recommended replacements.
We also recommend the following daily supplementation for those with Coeliac Disease.
Adults: | Healtheries Multi-Vitamin and Minerals with Selenium – 1 tablet daily |
Children: | Healtheries KidsCare Chewable Multi-Vitamin and Mineral – 1 tablet daily |
