Health Tip: Managing Celiac Disease
By LadyLively on October 13, 2016
Avoiding gluten is the most important factor in managing celiac disease, but more may be required.
Here are suggestions from the Mayo Clinic:
- Check food labels carefully and to avoid all foods and care products that contain gluten. Some types of lipstick and toothpaste include gluten.
- Since you’re avoiding certain foods, ask your doctor if you may need nutritional supplements.
- See your doctor regularly for checkups and tests, including a possible endoscopy if you have current symptoms.
- Work with a registered dietitian to make sure you’re getting the right nutrients.
