A REVIEW OF A RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN

COELIAC DISEASE AND OBESITY: NOT JUST

FAILURE TO THRIVE

T

he primary objective of this publication was to provide a systematic re-

view of the literature on the relationship between CD and obesity. Further,

the reviewer had the purpose of conducting an investigation on this correla-

tion, ranging from paediatrics to adults, in specific areas such as the mecha-

nism of the two conditions and the nutritional interventions. The mechanism

review involved finding any pathogenic and pathophysiological link between

the two conditions and investigating the possible association in clinical evi-

dence and manifestations and of the symptoms. As a result, the present re-

search was designed to establish a paper that can effectively inform not only

the public but health care providers, concerning the importance of proper and

time-sensitive diagnosis.

In order to achieve these objectives, the researcher conducted desk-based re-

search, which involved a comprehensive review of numerous journal articles

drawn from various publishers. The search strategy involved the use of both

internal and external secondary sources of information. Moreover, the search

strategy also considered the mechanistic pathology, functional physiology,

and human intervention.

The key findings indicated that CD and overweight/obesity present togeth-

er, and that this should be taken into account both in diagnosis by medical

professionals, and in the design of nutritional interventions as a GFD diet is

associated with weight gain, and this is probably a result of poor GFD proto-

cols that rely on replacement foods rather than a healthy, individualised diet.

Conclusively, it was important to establish a link between obesity and CD

based on the clinical implications of the findings, as well as the general health

care field; where the present paper points out the proper diagnosis of both

conditions, whether the symptoms are atypical or not. Hence, it was import-

ant to provide a precise nutritional intervention for future patients, which may

involve an introduction of a GFD before diagnosis, and strict follow-up and

education for the patients on the importance of this intervention.
