Diarrhea Diet

Celiac Disease
Celiac disease is a digestive disease that damages the small intestine and interferes with absorption of nutrients from food. People who have celiac disease cannot tolerate a protein called gluten, found in wheat, rye, and barley.
 
For a person diagnosed with celiac disease, treatment begins with a gluten-free diet for life. This is the only diet that will treat the condition.
