Celiac Disease
Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder triggered by gluten consumption, causing the immune system to attack the small intestine lining. This leads to villous atrophy, malabsorption of nutrients, and systemic inflammation. Functional medicine goes beyond gluten avoidance to heal the gut, restore nutrient status, and address cross-reactive foods.

Celiac Diagnosis and Gut Assessment
We confirm celiac disease and assess the extent of intestinal damage and nutrient deficiencies.
