Coeliacs
Coeliacs
- Coeliac disease is a digestive disorder triggered by gluten found in wheat, barley, and rye.
- The immune system attacks and damages the small intestine when gluten is consumed.
- This can lead to nutrient absorption issues and symptoms like bloating, abdominal pain, and fatigue.
- It is crucial to provide gluten-free alternatives such as rice, potatoes, quinoa, or buckwheat.
- It is also important to ensure that food ingredients and preparation areas are free from gluten contamination.
