“…This disease is known to cause inflammation of the mucosa in the small intestine; however, it can also affect the skin, joints, uterus, brain, heart, and other organs (Martin, 2007). Individuals at increased risk for celiac disease are those with another autoimmune disorder, type 1 diabetes mellitus, Turner syndrome, or Down's syndrome (Ryan & Grossman, 2011). Randolph (2012) stated gluten is found in a number of foods such as Kamut®, rye, spelt, barley, wheat, wheat-related grains, sauces, soups, candies, marinades, and processed meats.…”

“…C eliac sprue is an autoimmune disease affecting the digestive system and occurs when gluten proteins, commonly found in wheat, barley, and rye, are not fully digested, stimulating an inflammatory process in the small intestine. 13 Symptoms can appear at any point in life and can range from gastrointestinal upset, headache, low weight gain (weight loss), osteoporosis, depression, and infertility. 1–4 Due to the variety of symptoms, celiac sprue is often underdiagnosed.…”
