What is Celiac Disease:
Celiac disease is a disease caused by a problem in the digestion of protein foods such as bread, biscuits, pasta, which affects the absorption of nutrients Symptoms include gas and bloating, weight loss, and fatigue.
It is an immune disease that affects the small intestine and has several names, including: underground or celiac disease or celiac disease or Aldapouka
Celiac reasons:
- Is the immune response towards the gluten protein found mainly in
Wheat, barley, oats, and more accurately, the immune reaction occurs against a derivative of the gluten protein called Algliadan
- Which leads to inflammation of the lining of the small intestine and flatten the bumps as a result of damage to the villi-like fingers that help to increase the surface absorption of nutrients from the intestine is responsible for the absorption of nutrients
- This will, of course, to become the intestine is unable to absorb many of the important nutrients and fluids
Celiac symptoms:
Symptoms may vary from one person to another. While the digestive tract are common symptoms are when more patients may attend other patients for the treatment of symptoms due to other aspects such as anemia or bone and muscle pain due to osteoarthritis. Symptoms:
Symptoms related to the digestive system:
- Anemia, weakness and debility delayed growth
- The proliferation of bacteria in the intestinal tract as a result of malabsorption minute
- Abdominal pain and flatulence as a result of the low proportion of vitamin K in the blood
- Oral ulceration and increased susceptibility to bleeding
- Flatulence and frequent gas
- The urge to go to the toilet immediately after eating
- Chronic diarrhea, which may turn out to catch sometimes. The constipation may be the most prominent of diarrhea in some people
- Chronic acidity
- Underweight, wasting and muscular dystrophy
- Dermatitis Lhalaúa a skin condition affecting patients and cause itchy skin, Lhalaúa dermatitis occurs as a result of the work of the enzyme glutamine carrier in the skin.
Diagnosis of Celiac:
- Through semantic pathological symptoms and history
- Examination of antibodies in the blood that are found in 95% of patients. An examination reveals antibodies and enzyme transglutaminase.
- To confirm the diagnosis of intestinal sample taken during the examination of the gastrointestinal endoscope device top. It is a very thorough examination and from which to determine the degree of atrophy of the cilia and protrusions absorption.
Treatment of Celiac:
- Diet:
Free diet protein gluten is the cornerstone and mainstay of treatment in Siljak disease, should follow this lifelong treatment, and there is no other treatment currently prevents inflammation in the intestinal wall only remove the protein gluten from the diet, follow this diet is difficult and expensive and often patients fail By following these diet due to the prevalence of gluten in many canned food such as meat and sausages. There is no cure for the disease, and limited therapeutic procedures completely free of wheat and its derivatives eating gluten-containing diet and must provide a child with vitamins and iron in the case of destitution with food allowed the identification and prohibited.
- Experimental treatments:
There are a range of treatments for the disease is still in the process of experience and we are still waiting for the results of the clinical studies of these treatments:
- Eat GMO and gluten-free grain, but the problem facing this type of grain lies in the low quality of the dough from the factory to the absence of this article.
- Add some digestive enzymes for gluten to the diet in order to facilitate the digestion of this article and to enable the patient to eat foods containing gluten.
- Inhibition of work Zulan protein that increases the permeability of mucous membranes in the intestines, which reduces the size of inflammation resulting from crossing Albroolaminac into the intestinal wall and the occurrence of inflammatory reaction in them.
Research and Studies for Celiac:
- Studies confirm that the symptoms have improved the content within a short period from the start of the injured Balsljk commitment to gluten-free diet, but some symptoms may disappear within a week. Usually return outcrops and cilia to normal and improves nutrient absorption and stop most of the symptoms of the disease quickly.
However, this is conditional on the patient permanently refrain from all foods containing gluten, and, if addressed, even in small quantities, the improvement will come back to the starting point and repeat the onset of symptoms.
It is very important not to eat any product that does not know its contents are accurate, even medicines and toothpastes, and caution when eating any food outside the home of the patient was not sure that it does not contain gluten within their amounts or Addenda. Doctors and stressed the importance of the role of nutrition professionals in helping patients to guide them Celiac Food appropriate for them. To mention, there is no complications from hold those gluten-free diet over the long term.
In comparison, there was a decrease incidence of Celiac disease in communities that do not rely on a diet of wheat. Thus, the scientists attribute the cause of increased incidence of increased demand for the introduction of wheat in food.
