The following classification of gluten-related disorders was announced in 2011 by a panel of experts in London, and published in February 2012: [7] [8] Autoimmune disorders: celiac disease, dermatitis herpetiformis, gluten ataxia; Non-autoimmune, non-allergic: disorder with unknown cause, likely immune-modulated: non-celiac gluten sensitivity ...
This condition is known as refractory coeliac disease (RCD), defined as malabsorption due to gluten-related enteropathy (villous atrophy or elevated intraepitheal lymphocytes) after initial or subsequent failure of a strict gluten-free diet (usually 1 year) and after exclusion of any disorder mimicking coeliac disease. [106] [107]
The classic symptoms of untreated coeliac disease include diarrhea, steatorrhoea, iron-deficiency anemia, and weight loss or failure to gain weight. Other common symptoms may be subtle or primarily occur in organs other than the bowel itself. [34] It is also possible to have coeliac disease without any of the classic symptoms at all. [18]

People with gluten-related disorders have to remove gluten from their diet strictly, so they need clear labeling rules. [84] The term "gluten-free" is generally used to indicate a supposed harmless level of gluten rather than a complete absence.

List of medical symptoms. Medical symptoms refer to the manifestations or indications of a disease or condition, perceived and complained about by the patient. [1] [2] Patients observe these symptoms and seek medical advice from healthcare professionals.
Though oats are gluten-free, some people with celiac disease have an adverse immune reaction to the proteins in oats and need to avoid the grain. 3. Worst: Ener-G Multigrain Loaf (With Brown Rice)
The type of protein here is gluten, the main culprit in Celiac disease. Well, really the main culprit behind celiac disease is a 33 amino acid peptide component of gluten called gliadin. Okay, so the gliadin in gluten is what triggers immune attack in Celiac disease, hence the need for gluten-free pizza or buns in hamburgers, right?
