Abstract
Celiac Disease is a serious autoimmune disorder that can emerge ingenetically predisposed persons where the ingestion of gluten could damage the smallintestine. It can develop at any age and if left untreated, it can lead to severe healthproblems. Celiac disease has a hereditary component and when a celiac person eatsgluten (a protein found in wheat, barley and rye), the body begins an immune responsethat leads to damage the small fingerlike projections (villous) of the small intestine,avoiding the proper absorption of nutrients into the body. In this chapter, we intend topresent a brief review of the literature that has been produced, following the newperspectives on celiac disease approach. We present a brief description of recent advances in the celiac disease diagnosis, treatment and gluten-free diet.
