[Celiac disease and new diseases related to gluten]
Abstract
Celiac disease is the most common chronic intestinal disease. Nowadays it´s known that this is a multisistemic pathology of immune mechanism, triggered by gluten, which occurs in genetically susceptible individuals. It affects approximately 1% of the world population, which is a very high prevalence, affects all age groups and has symptoms both digestive and extra-digestive. Since it is a disease that requires maintaining a gluten-free diet and medical monitoring for life, it is important to know it and establish its diagnosis properly. Along with celiac disease a number of new diseases related to gluten are diagnosed increasingly, including the non celiac gluten sensitivity or wheat allergy. The suffering of celiac disease, or other related diseases, by conditioning diet changes of the affected individual, it may be associated with nutritional imbalances that need to monitor and try to solve. Therefore patients with this problem need special nutritional advice.
La enfermedad celíaca es la enfermedad crónica intestinal más frecuente que existe. Actualmente se sabe que se trata de una patología multisistémica de mecanismo inmunitario, provocada por el gluten, que se da en individuos genéticamente susceptibles. Afecta aproximadamente al 1% de la población mundial, lo que supone una prevalencia muy elevada, afecta a todos los grupos de edad y tiene síntomas de presentación muy variados, tanto digestivos como extradigestivos. Ya que es una enfermedad que exige el mantenimiento de una dieta sin gluten y un seguimiento médico de por vida, es importante conocerla y establecer adecuadamente su diagnóstico. Junto a la enfermedad celíaca se diagnostican cada vez más una serie de nuevas patologías relacionadas con el gluten, entre las que destacan la sensibilidad al gluten no celíaca o la alergia al trigo. El padecimiento de enfermedad celíaca, o de otras patologías relacionadas, al condicionar cambios en la alimentación del individuo afectado, puede asociarse con desequilibrios nutricionales que es necesario vigilar e intentar resolver. Por ello los pacientes con esta problemática necesitan un asesoramiento nutricional especial.
