Micronutrient Deficiencies are Common in Adults with Celiac Disease
Celiac.com 07/10/2019 - Fewer new celiac patients are being diagnosed with classical malabsorption problems. Has this fact had any impact on nutrient deficiency? A team of researchers recently set out to evaluate micronutrient deficiencies in a contemporary group of adult patients with newly diagnosed celiac disease.
The research team included Adam C. Bledsoe MD; Katherine S. King MS; Joseph J. Larson BS; Melissa Snyder PhD; Imad Absah MD; Rok Seon Choung MD, PhD; and Joseph A.Murray MD. They are variously affiliated with the Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, the Division of Biomedical Statistics and Informatics, the Division of Clinical Biochemistry, and the Division of Pediatric Gastroenterology at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN; and the Department of Pediatrics at ...

Nutrient Deficiencies in Adults and Children with Treated and Untreated Celiac Disease
Celiac.com 07/14/2020 - Nutrient deficiencies are common in people with celiac disease, and closely tied to many of its physical expressions. Even though these deficiencies are potentially important, researchers don't really have much good information on their pattern and frequency in celiac patients, or on their potential usefulness at the time of diagnosis and during follow-up.
A team of researchers recently set out to develop an overview of nutrient deficiencies in children and adults with celiac disease, both upon diagnosis and after treatment with a gluten-free diet. They also sought to better understand the potential role of nutritional deficiencies in the development of celiac disease.
The research team included Johanna M. Kreutz, Marlou P. M. Adriaanse, Elisabeth M...

Gluten-Free Diet Can Deprive Celiacs of Important Nutrients
Celiac.com 04/03/2023 - People with celiac disease must follow a gluten-free diet for their entire lives in order to stay healthy. But, gluten-free foods are traditionally high in salt, sugar and fat, among other things. So, what's the impact of a gluten-free diet on the nutritional levels of people with celiac disease?
A team of researchers recently looked at studies of adults and children with celiac disease who followed a gluten-free diet, to see if they were getting the proper nutrients in their diets.

The research team included Monica Gessaroli, Leonardo Frazzoni, Usama Sikandar, Gabriele Bronzetti, Andrea Pession, Rocco Maurizio Zagari, Lorenzo Fuccio & Maria Luisa Forchielli. They are variously affiliated with theDepartment of Medical ...

Nutrient Deficiencies and Celiac Disease: Understanding the Connection
Celiac.com 04/15/2023 - Celiac disease is a chronic autoimmune disorder that affects the small intestine, triggered by the ingestion of gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye. One often overlooked consequence of untreated and undiagnosed celiac disease is the potential for nutrient deficiencies. Due to the damage caused to the lining of the small intestine, absorption of various essential nutrients may be impaired, leading to deficiencies that can have wide-ranging health effects. In this article, we will explore the connection between celiac disease and nutrient deficiencies, focusing on several key vitamins, minerals, and other essential nutrients.
The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron...

  Celiac Maybe a Possibility?
  
  Because you have significantly reduced your gluten intake over a considerable amount of time, it is likely that you will test negative on the antibody tests. However, if the $112 for the Quest test is not a burden, it wouldn't hurt to try. It tests for total IGA (to ascertain if you are IGA deficient) and tTG-IGA. If total IGA is deficient, it can result...

  Celiac Maybe a Possibility?
  
  These responses are all extremely helpful, ty. Really good reminder about omega 6. I also know I'm low in zinc; I took the zinc test where I drank it on a spoon and couldn't taste it. To that end, I try to eat a lot of oysters. I do think it would be a good idea to get the blood test. Two questions: 1- Is there any reason you wouldn't recommend...

  For me, with osteoporosis, Celiac and more than 1 heart condition, the slower, safer route is preferable. I'm on 5 meds per day. Too much of anything can disturb absorption of this or that. Have a Happy Thanksgiving. I'm gone for a few days.

  It took me 2015 to 2021 at 10,000 IU a day to get to 80 ng/ml. In 2019 I was still only 47 ng/ml The highest it has reached is 93. Tested every 3 months. While a one time massive dose can be used to quickly raise vitamin D levels, its effects only last three months. Because vitamin D is stored in fat, an obese person would require more...
