Coeliac disease (CD) is an auto-immune disease caused by intolerance to gluten, which is found in wheat, barley and rye. Around 700,000 people in the UK are estimated to have the condition - with seven in every eight cases thought to be undiagnosed. Coeliac Disease: What you need to know addresses the needs of the increasing number of people who either suspect they may have CD or who are newly diagnosed. It also aims to support and advise parents and carers of children with Coeliac Disease.

Topics include:
- tests and diagnoses
- food sense - labelling and shopping
- diet and nutrition
- health issues
- emotional well-being
- practical issues
- children and family
- staying well
- research and future therapies.
 
In this positive, comprehensive guide, Alex Gazzola says that you can be confident about living life to the full with coeliac disease.
