2
What is Celiac Disease?
Celiac disease (CD) is a genetically linked disease with an environmental trigger.
Eating certain types of protein fractions, commonly called gluten, sets off an autoimmune response that causes damage to the small intestine.
3
The Diagnosis for CD – 3 Steps
1. Physical examine including blood tests for gluten antibodies (IgA based tests)– EMA anti-endomysial– TTG anti-tissue transglutaminase– DGP Deaminated Gliadin Peptide
2. A small bowel biopsy
3. Implement the gluten-free diet
(process complete when symptoms subside)
4
What is non-celiac gluten sensitivity?
•Nonallergic and nonautoimmune response to gluten•Is thought not to cause damage to the small intestine•Individual tests negative for celiac disease and wheat allergy but has adverse response to gluten•Diagnosis remains one of exclusion
5
Celiac Disease and Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity
Celiac Disease
– autoimmune
– IgA, TTG (or others) positive
– biopsy shows damage
– associated with complications
Gluten Sensitivity
– non-autoimmune (test negative)
– non-allergic (test negative)
– normal biopsy
– complications not known
– no consensus on diagnostic criteria
– diagnosis remains one of exclusion
6 Both respond to the gluten-free diet!
CD Prevalence in the U.S.
1: 133 Average healthy people
At Risk Groups:1:56 Related symptoms1:39 2nd degree relatives
(aunt, uncle, cousin)
1:22 1st degree relatives (parent, child, sibling)
Fasano A, et al. Arch Intern Med 2003 Feb 10;163(3):286-92. 7
Statistics…..celiac disease
Celiac disease affects at least 3 million Americans– 97% are undiagnosed
The average rate of diagnosis is 4 years
Delay causes risk for developing:– autoimmune disorders– neurological problems– osteoporosis – cancer

33
Gluten-free basic choices
Gluten-free foods include:– Fresh salad (no croutons)– Fruits and vegetables– Milk– Meats, fish or poultry
(no breading, no marinade)
– Pure spices and herbs (watch out for seasonings)
– Pasta and breads labeled gluten-free34
Preparing for the grocery store
35
FDA’s Proposed Definition of Gluten-Free
Cannot contain wheat, barley, rye (W, B, R)or a crossbred hybrid of these grains
Cannot contain ingredient derived from W, B, R that has not been processed to remove gluten
Can contain an ingredient derived from W, B, R that has been processed to remove gluten but with final product containing < 20 ppm gluten
Must contain <20 ppm or more gluten, whether gluten comes from an ingredient or is in the food unintentionally due to cross contact
36
How to know if something is gluten-free?
CSA Recognition Seal< 5 ppm
GIG Certification< 10 ppm
NFCA Certification<10 ppm
Health Canada dictates - 20 ppm is guide37
Regulatory Agencies
FDA – Regulates all foods except meat,
poultry & egg products
– FALCPA covers all packaged foods in the US except those covered by the USDA
38
Label reading know how….
Food Allergy Labeling and Consumer Protection Act (FALCPA) requires only top 8 allergens to be identified. Barley, rye, oats and their derivatives are not required to be listed.

39
Label reading know how….
Food Allergy Labeling and Consumer Protection Act (FALCPA) requires the 8
top allergens to be identified.
Barley, rye, oats and their derivatives are not included…keep an eye out for malt and brewers yeast too.
40
Regulatory Agencies
USDA– Regulates meat, poultry and eggs– No allergen labeling requirements at
this time– If there is a “Contains” statement the
manufacturer is voluntarily complying with FALCPA

Bottom line – call on ? products
Navigating the grocery store
Speciality areas may be located within the store with gluten-free items
Select package items rather than bulk bins
Select products with gluten-free seals whenever possible (especially grains, seeds, and flours*)
