Celiac Disease Diet

Read more about...

As discussed under Conventional Treatment, a restricted diet is the primary form of treatment for celiac disease.
Eliminate gluten, contained in wheat, rye and barley, from the diet. Although oats contain gluten, they do not cause diarrhea associated with gluten intolerance. Avoid hidden sources of gluten in commercially prepared foods such as soy sauce, modified food starch, ice-cream, soup or alcoholic beverages.
Abstain from milk and milk products until healthy intestinal function is restored. Since completely digested gliadin (the component of gluten which activates celiac disease) does not trigger the disease, a deficiency of enzymes active in digestion may be a causal factor.
Eat plenty of raw fruits and vegetables which are rich in digestive enzymes. Use unrefined, cold-pressed flax seed oil to provide omega-3 essential fatty acids, which are needed to maintain many metabolic functions.
Nutritionists and dietitians are good sources of information about which foods have gluten in them, as well as ideas for gluten-free cooking. Gluten is often a hidden ingredient in food products. For example, products that list cereal fillers or hydrolyzed protein on the labels contain gluten and so must be avoided. It is best to work with a professional in developing the correct diet for your individual needs.
