What is Chronic Diarrhea & Celiac Disease?

Chronic diarrhea involves frequent, loose, or watery stools lasting more than four weeks. One of its underlying causes can be celiac disease, an autoimmune disorder triggered by the ingestion of gluten—a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye. In people with celiac disease, gluten damages the lining of the small intestine, leading to poor nutrient absorption and symptoms such as chronic diarrhea, weight loss, fatigue, and bloating.

How We Cure It

Treatment for chronic diarrhea depends on the cause. In celiac disease, the only effective treatment is lifelong adherence to a strict gluten-free diet. Eliminating gluten helps heal intestinal damage and resolve symptoms. Nutritional supplements may be needed to address deficiencies. For non-celiac causes of chronic diarrhea, management may include dietary adjustments, hydration, and medication. Regular follow-up is crucial to monitor intestinal healing and ensure dietary compliance.
