The influence of a gluten-free diet on health-related quality of life in individuals with celiac disease

Abstract: Background Adherence to a gluten-free diet (GFD) and food insecurity (FI) may influence health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in individuals with celiac disease (CD). This study aimed to investigate the association between adherence to a GFD, FI, and HRQOL in individuals with CD. Methods This cross-sectional study included 97 adults (mean age: 34 ± 9 years) diagnosed with CD. The participants were on a GFD for more than 6 months. Sociodemographic … Show more

“…This association also occurred for the feeling that they cannot live a normal life because of GRDs, since individuals who reported that “Always/almost always”, had lower EC scores than those who reported that “never/almost never” feel it. People who cannot feel a normal life with GRD and feel socially disapproved because of GFD may face lower emotional well-being and perception of food insecurity [ 76 ], which could explain our findings.…”

“…Following a strict diet is also the only way to prevent the serious effects of the disease in the long run. A gluten free diet (GFD) means strict elimination of all gluten-containing products, such as wheat, barley, rye, but also cereal products (e.g., semolina, durum, spelled, triticale, and malt) ( 13 , 16 , 17 ). Studies in the field have shown that the rate of adherence to a GFD varies from 44 to 90% in patients with CD.…”

“…Celiac is one of the autoimmune and genetic disorders which influences the small intestine system due to the extremely high gluten sensitivity. The prevalence of this disease is nearly 1.5% in the world, but nowadays the intolerance to that protein by humans has been increasing (Al‑sunaid et al, 2021; Wójcik et al, 2021). Besides celiac, gluten intake is also associated with nonceliac gluten illness and wheat allergy.…”

“…Besides celiac, gluten intake is also associated with nonceliac gluten illness and wheat allergy. Wheat, barley, rye, and their derivatives must be replaced by other cereals and/or legumes as well as buckwheat and carob flours in patients, for eliminating symptoms such as asthma, skin problems, and anaphylactic shock (Aleman et al, 2021; Al‑sunaid et al, 2021; Filipčev et al, 2021). Rice ( Oryza sativa ) is one of the favorite grains in gluten‐free (GF) foods and has unique abilities.…”
