It is Coeliac Awareness Week! 🍞

Coeliac disease is a condition that causes your body to have an immune response to gluten. 

The treatment = a strict gluten free diet (in most cases). 

Coeliac disease can be particularly debilitating as the exact cause is often unclear and can often lead to overly restricted diets in fear of experiencing a flare-up. If you suspect you may have coeliac disease, then get in touch with the Sports & Spinal Dietitian team. 

Our team will conduct a detailed assessment of your medical history, diet and lifestyle to determine the likely cause of your symptoms. You will then be provided with the knowledge and personalised resources to confidently manage your health independently.
