What is Celiac Disease

Celiac Disease is a chronic autoimmune disorder that primarily affects the small intestine when gluten is consumed. In those with the condition, gluten intake triggers an immune response that damages the villi small finger-like projections in the intestine essential for absorbing nutrients. This damage can result in poor nutrient absorption, gastrointestinal symptoms, and other health complications. It’s a lifelong condition and requires strict dietary control. Celiac Disease can affect people of all ages and may also have genetic predispositions.

Causes of Celiac Disease

Celiac Disease occurs due to a combination of genetic and environmental factors. People with certain genes (HLA-DQ2 or HLA-DQ8) are more susceptible. When these individuals consume gluten, their immune system misfires and attacks the small intestine. Environmental factors like infections, gut bacteria changes, or early gluten exposure may also contribute. A family history of the condition significantly increases risk. It is not caused by food intolerance alone but by a complex immune mechanism.

Diagnosis for Celiac Disease

Diagnosis typically begins with blood tests that detect specific antibodies related to gluten sensitivity, such as anti-tTG or EMA antibodies. If these tests are positive, a biopsy of the small intestine is usually recommended to confirm villi damage. Genetic testing may also be used, especially in ambiguous cases. It’s crucial not to stop eating gluten before testing, as it may alter results. Accurate diagnosis helps ensure effective management and long-term health improvements.

Symptoms of Celiac Disease

Celiac Disease can present with a wide range of symptoms. Common signs include chronic diarrhea, bloating, gas, fatigue, and unexplained weight loss. Some individuals may also experience anemia, skin rashes (dermatitis herpetiformis), and joint pain. In children, it can cause delayed growth and puberty. Not all cases are digestive-related; some are silent or atypical. Timely identification of symptoms can prevent severe nutritional deficiencies and irreversible intestinal damage.

Treatment for Celiac Disease

The only effective treatment is a strict lifelong gluten-free diet, which helps heal the intestinal lining and reduce symptoms. This includes avoiding all forms of wheat, barley, and rye. Nutritional supplements might be prescribed to correct deficiencies. Regular follow-ups, dietary counseling, and blood tests ensure continued progress. In rare cases, steroids may be used for refractory celiac. Lifestyle changes and education about hidden gluten sources are vital for long-term success.

When to See the Doctor?
