Abstract

With the urbanization and development of mankind, digestive disorders due to wheat or its constituent gluten has seen increased prevalence globally. Celiac disease (CD), non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS) and Wheat Allergy are all conditions in which the primary treatment is avoidance of specific dietary components. There are certain overlaps and often common misconceptions associated with these three conditions. Following a wheat or gluten free diet can be extremely difficult and overwhelming for an individual as well as having an impact on their nutritional status, growth and quality of life. Currently there is a lack of clarity in terms of global standard dilations for the management of all three of the named conditions. The aim of this paper is to provide an update on different gluten related disorders, their nutritional management and to provide practical guidance on implementing the specific dietary changes.
