About 1% of population worldwide, including in India, is suspected to be affected with celiac disease but the diagnosis rate is abysmally low presently. Together, we can help increase the diagnosis rate, spread awareness about this condition and help the celiac community in our country.
There are resources here for all health professionals which will help facilitate better understanding of celiac disease and communicate different aspects of this condition to their patients.
You could guide your patients to this website where there there are resources for them, including many FAQs and a separate section exclusively for children.
Please write to Dr. Pankaj Vohra at drpankajvohra@celiacindia.org.in with any views, experiences, comments or queries regarding celiac disease, gluten free diet or related subjects.
