It has gained the interest of the health food community recently. It is low in gluten and may be tolerated by some gluten-sensitive individuals. Thanks for the information and I will check alternative sources. However, the nutrition databases I have access to (over 40,000 foods) do not list spelt. Unfortunately, the nutrient analysis for many foods or nutrients on labels in foods sold in health food stores is not available. Hello, I'm 32 and have been diagnosed with many allergies, some I knew about others I didn't. One I am concerned about is gluten, the others are both kinds of yeast. I am wondering about what kinds of things I can substitute in my diet for breads and such, any suggestions would be helpful. First how were you diagnosed with a gluten allergy? Typically, persistent diarrhea after eating is the most common symptom. There seems to be a popular notion that yeast causes candida infections of the gut, which is not supported by nutrition research. I would recommend you investigate a yeast allergy further with your doctor. Rice and potato flour is substituted for wheat, rye, oats and barley that contain gluten. These allergens are in many foods. Vegetable protein products including bacon toppings and soy sauce contain gluten as well. I would suggest you contact a

The intestines contain projections (called villi) that normally absorb nutrients. In undiagnosed or untreated celiac disease, these villi become flattened and the ability to absorb nutrients properly is altered. As a result, several other organ systems may also be affected.

TM Celiac sprue MedFriendly.com TM TM A B C D ... What is the origin of the word, "celiac sprue"? WHAT IS IT? Celiac sprue is an uncommon, long-term disorder, in which the lining of the small intestine wastes away, becomes inflamed, and is damaged by a protein known as gluten. This protein is found in wheat, rye, barley, and other cereals. The intestine is a tube shaped structure that is part of the digestive tract. It stretches from an opening in the stomach to the anus (rear end) and occupies most of the lower parts of the belly. The small intestine is a part of the intestine that takes in all of the nutrients that the body needs. The damage to the lining of the small intestine causes a failure to absorb nutrients in food. This causes weight loss, a lack of vitamins and minerals in the body, and the passage of a large amount of fat in the feces (poop), which will be large and smell very bad. Weight loss and a lack of vitamins and minerals can cause skin problems and anemia. Anemia is a condition in which there is an abnormally low amount of hemoglobin in the blood. Hemoglobin is substance present in red blood cells that help carry oxygen to cells in the body. WHAT CAUSES CELIAC SPRUE?

Nontropical sprue (condition): A genetic digestive intolerance to gluten in the diet caused by damage to the intestinal villi with an underlying autoimmune cause. Celiac is believed to be one of the most under-diagnosed and thus misdiagnosed conditions in America. Although the diagnosis rate is about 1 in 5000, the actual estimated prevalence may be as high as 1 in 250. Celiac disease is poorly understood by many American doctors, and may be misdiagnosed as various other digestive disorders such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Nontropical sprue : Celiac disease is a digestive disease that damages the small intestine and interferes with absorption of nutrients from food. People who have celiac disease cannot tolerate a protein called gluten, which is found in wheat, rye, barley, and possibly oats. When people with celiac disease eat foods containing gluten, their immune system responds by damaging the small intestine. Specifically, tiny fingerlike protrusions, called villi, on the lining of the small intestine are lost. Nutrients from food are absorbed into the bloodstream through these villi. Without villi, a person becomes malnourishedregardless of the quantity of food eaten.

What does celiac disease do to the small intestine? ... Celiac Disease At A Glance What is celiac disease? Celiac disease is a disease of the small intestine . The small intestine is a 22 foot long tube that begins at the stomach and ends at the large intestine (colon). The first 1-1/2 feet of the small intestine (the part that is attached to the stomach) is called the duodenum , the middle part is called the jejunum , and the last part (the part that is attached to the colon) is called the ileum . Food empties from the stomach into the small intestine where it is digested and absorbed into the body. While food is being digested and absorbed, it is transported by the small intestine to the colon. What enters the colon is primarily undigested food. In celiac disease, there is an immunological (allergic) reaction within the inner lining of the small intestine to proteins gluten ) that are present in wheat, rye, barley and, to a lesser extent, in oats. The immunological reaction causes inflammation that destroys the lining of the small intestine. This reduces the absorption of dietary nutrients and can lead to symptoms and signs of nutritional, vitamin, and mineral deficiencies. Other names for celiac disease include sprue, nontropical sprue, gluten

nontropical sprue Coeliac disease is clinically very variable and so is defined pathologically as a permanent gluten-sensitive enteropathy. The mucosal lesions seen on upper GI biopsy are the result of an abnormal, genetically determined, cell-mediated immune response to gliadin, a constituent of the gluten found in wheat. A similar response occurs to comparable proteins found in rye and barley. Gluten is not found in oats, rice and maize. Coeliac disease was first identifed by Samuel Gee in 1888. However, it was W. Dicke in the 1950s who identified the dietary link, noting that patients with this condition were apparently cured by the deprivations of World War II, but relapsed when rationing was abolished.
