What is Gluten??
Storage protein of cereal seeds
Glutinous properties of

Why more Coeliac disease?
Changing diet More gluten exposure Different food processing methods Infant feeding practices Role of infections/bacteria More Recognition?

Looking for Coeliac disease How can we find it??
Finding Coeliac disease 1900-1950 Growth Retardation
Bulky Fatty Feces 1950-1970 fecal-fat 1980-1990 antigliadin 1990-2000 EMA (tTg) 2000-today DQ2/8; tTg 2011-2015 Myo9B etc, others???
Find a scope and biopsy !!!

23
How is coeliac disease diagnosed?
Someone has to suspect it!
A blood test suggests it
EMA / tTG (IgA, Hb, Fe, IgG-based assay)
A duodenal biopsy confirms the diagnosis

Prevention in High Risk Infants
Previous: Gluten 4-6 months + BF Now: timing relevant, BF less important
Is there more than Coeliac disease?

People purchasing gluten-free food
Gluten allergy? Fructose malabsorption
Advice Naturopath/Other
Coeliac disease
916 children
1% diagnosed with CD
5% avoided gluten
Predictor for gluten avoidance = Christchurch location (OR 2.2)

Gluten exposure in IBS
Gluten exposure lead to symptoms in adults with IBS. 34 included
Randomised controlled bread/muffins Symptoms in 1 week No change in tests

Responses to other components?
Wherever gluten is found, other substances that can cause gastrointestinal symptoms are also found
Most commonly fructans but also other poorly absorbed carbohydrates
Restricting gluten also restricts these and may improve symptoms
