What if I have coeliac disease?

Coeliac disease is a condition of the small intestine caused by a complex immunological response provoked by gluten. Gluten is a protein found in wheat, rye, barley and triticale. Also can found in contaminated oats.

With coeliac disease, the gluten in foods leads to damage of the gut lining which in turn prevents food being digested and absorbed into the body properly.
