Nutritional Management in Celiac Disease
Nutritional management in celiac disease involves adhering to a strict gluten-free diet to avoid harmful reactions to gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye. This means eliminating these grains from the diet and choosing safe alternatives like rice, quinoa, and gluten-free grains. Patients should also focus on a balanced intake of nutrients, as celiac disease can lead to deficiencies. Regular monitoring and consultations with a dietitian can help ensure adequate nutrition and address any ongoing symptoms or deficiencies, supporting overall health and well-being.
