When gluten is eaten, the lining of the small intestine becomes inflamed. This causes flattening of the intestinal villi which means absorption of nutrients becomes more difficult.
As Coeliac disease is a life long condition, it is important to have regular follow ups with your dietitian. From the initial gluten free dietary education session, we can further assist you with navigating label reading, recipe modification, eating out and travelling. Nutrient deficiencies are common and untreated can lead to long term health problems, such as osteoporosis.
We are recognised for our expertise in gastrointestinal (gut and bowel) nutrition, while each member of our team also brings additional specialties across chronic disease management, women’s health and hormones, bone health, and more.
