“…As already mentioned, the food diaries evaluation may not fully reflect the real situation, especially in people who are overweight ( 8 , 11 ). In our study, 40% of CD patients had BMI equal to or greater than 25 kg/m 2 , which could have the influence on the results and which, at the same time, proves that the obesity epidemic described in other studies has reached the patients with coeliac disease in Slovenia ( 13 ).…”

“…It is also important to note that 40% of the CD patients had BMI equal to, or greater than, 25 kg/m 2 ; similar results were published by Kopec et al’s study (2009), according to which 43,6% of CD patients had BMI equal to, or greater than, 25 kg/m 2 ( 13 ). It can be concluded that the reporting of food intake in certain CD patients is not realistic, which is consistent with the data from literature, where people with a higher BMI often reported lower food intake than the one actually consumed ( 8 , 11 ).…”

ObjectivesThe aim of the study was to assess dietary intake of coeliac disease (CD) patients and to determine if they are meeting the dietary reference values for a balanced diet.Subjects/Methods40 women with CD, aged from 23 to 76 participated in our study. Total daily intake was assessed by a three-day food diary. Resting metabolic rate (RMR) was calculated using Harris-Benedict equation. Considering physical activity level (PAL) 1.4, the recommended total energy expenditure (TEE) value was determined. The data was evaluated with professional evaluation software Prodi and statistically analysed.Results40 participants returned the food diary. The average energy intake was significantly too low to ensure the meeting of all-day energy needs (p<0.05). The meals contained a recommended proportion of protein, but a statistically significantly higher proportion of fat (p<0.05), lower proportion of carbohydrates and a significantly lower intake of dietary fibre (p<0.05). Regarding macro-, micro- elements and vitamins, there was a significant lack in the intake of calcium and iodine, folic acid, vitamin D and vitamin A (p<0.05), meanwhile iron intake was at the lower limit of the recommended intake, whereas zinc, potassium and vitamin K intake were significantly higher according to the recommended values, but were comparable with the intake of the general population in the Central European area.ConclusionEven in subjects with adequate or low daily energy intake, their meals contained too much fat, too few carbohydrates and dietary fibre as well as inorganic substances. The patients with CD should get regular nutritional monitoring and education on the quality and balance of a gluten-free diet.
