Hello doctor, can you tell us

how to detect celiac

disease

Of course, but first

let’s discover

the digestive system

Look, this is a

human’s digestive system

And how can we

detect the disease?

When the doctor notices that the patient has some symptoms he asks for a

blood test and if the patient has the anti-bodies

in his blood the doctor performs an endoscopy to

assure the diagnosis

And what happens after the diagnosis ?

Copyright © 2014 Author: Suad AlFuraih All rights reserved

After being diagnosed, the patient must be on a strict gluten free diet for life, because gluten destroys his villis, which can lead to other dangerous diseases, and it could cause loss of concentration and fatigue
