Title: Gluten Related Disorders


1
Gluten Related Disorders
2
What are Gluten Related Disorders?
  • Gluten Related Disorders are a group of medical
    conditions triggered by the consumption of
    gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye.

3
Celiac Disease
  • Celiac Disease is an autoimmune disorder where
    the ingestion of gluten leads to damage in the
    small intestine, causing various symptoms.

4
Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS)
  • NCGS is a condition in which individuals
    experience gastrointestinal and other symptoms
    after consuming gluten, but without the
    autoimmune response seen in celiac disease.

5
Wheat Allergy
  • Wheat Allergy is an allergic reaction to proteins
    found in wheat. It can cause symptoms such as
    hives, difficulty breathing, and more.

6
Diagnosis
  • Diagnosis of gluten-related disorders involves
    various tests, including blood tests, endoscopy,
    and elimination diets.

7
Treatment
  • The primary treatment for celiac disease and
    wheat allergy is strict avoidance of gluten and
    wheat-containing products. NCGS management
    involves a gluten-free diet.

8
Gluten-Free Diet
  • A gluten-free diet excludes wheat, barley, and
    rye. It focuses on naturally gluten-free foods
    like fruits, vegetables, and gluten-free grains.

9
Complications
  • Without proper management, gluten-related
    disorders can lead to complications like nutrient
    deficiencies, osteoporosis, and more.

10
Conclusion
  • In conclusion, understanding and managing
    gluten-related disorders are essential for those
    affected to lead a healthy and symptom-free life.
