"CELIAC DISEASE DOES NOT STOP YOU FROM GETTING IDEAL HEALTH "

Arshpreet has gained 13kg body weight and his height is increased by 11cm .

He is suffering from wheat allergy, even today he has excluded all the foods containing gluten , but his day's diet is completely balanced providing  all macro-micro nutrients as per his present requirement.

Arshpreet was diagnosed with Celiac disease at the age of 8. After excluding all gluten containing food, he was not gaining ideal weight  and ideal  height as per his that age .
His parents had considered that all had happened  because of  wheat allergy  and would might gain low weight and height as per his age . 

 During nutritional assessment done by Dietitian Kamal Bajwa , It was  ruled out that  the proteins and calories were deficient  in his diet . He was just consuming 8 gm protein /kg/body weight/per day and calorie intake was hardly upto 1600kcl/day .Consumption of protein and calorie was very less as per his growth  requirement .

From the day he was put on balanced diet he showed remarkable improvement

 .
Celiac patients should monitor the diet thoroughly with help of a dietitian . In most of cases celiac patients stop using gluten containing product along with they unknowingly reduce  protein and calorie intake and eventually effecting the health, growth and development .

if the above sounds familiar to you I have a few suggestions:
1. Start to become aware of what you are eating in a day's diet, should  not only gluten free but also providing you required amount of calorie and protein.
2. Start to having small and frequent meal to enhance the  proper digestion .
3. Prefer protein rich food with high biological value.
4. Also, ask yourself this question, “Do I need support and strategies to help support this celiac disease and any concern with your growth and development "
This simple practice of awareness and reflection can help you make even better decisions going forward.
