What is Celiac Disease?

Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that destroys the lining of the small intestine when gluten is ingested. There is no cure for celiac disease. The only treatment is to follow a strict, lifelong gluten-free diet. It is estimated that 1 in 100 people have celiac disease and 97% have not been diagnosed.
