Body composition and dietary intakes in adult celiac disease patients consuming a strict gluten-free diet

Abstract: Background: Celiac disease responds to dietary gluten withdrawal, but data on the long-term effects of gluten-free diets are discordant. Objective: Our aim was to evaluate the nutritional status and body composition of adult celiac disease patients consuming a gluten-free diet who were in clinical, biochemical, and histologic remission. Design: We studied 71 patients (51 women and 20 men; mean age: 27 y; range: 17-58 y) and 142 healthy control subjects matched by sex and age. The subjects' height, weight, body… Show more

“…Of greater concern is that over one-third of patients are exceeding the recommended percentage of energy from fat. In contrast to findings in previous studies (Kemppainen et al, 1995;Bardella et al, 2000;Capristo et al, 2000) our results showed that patients with CD are actually having a lower average intake of fat than the general population, and get a smaller proportion of total energy from fat. Only one study has found similar findings and this was only in females (Bjorkman et al, 1985).…”

“…Bjorkman et al (1985) and Bardella et al (2000) found that the GFD resulted in a significant decrease in mean energy intake and significantly lower total daily intake of energy than controls, whereas Kemppainen et al (1995) found intakes of energy were significantly greater in patients with CD compared to the controls (Po0.05). Collins et al (1986) found that 24% patients had a lower energy than the estimated average requirements (EARs).…”

“…However, little information is available on the nutritional composition of these GF products. Composition data useful to evaluate the adequacy of nutrient intake of coeliac patients, on which the debate is still open (6)(7)(8)(9) , are therefore strongly needed. In the present work, we built a database of composition of a number of foods representing the main sources of intake of GF products in the Italian diet.…”
