The doctor will conduct blood tests to check if the patient is deficient in nutrients and has antibodies that react to gluten. Your doctor may do other tests (such as an endoscopy) to identify symptoms and rule out other conditions. Your doctor will perform an endoscopy with a thin, flexible tube with a camera on the end that is inserted into your throat and through your stomach to your small intestine.
Under the new method, capsule endoscopy, a small camera placed in an oral tablet can look inside the intestines. The doctor will then take a sample of tissue to study under a microscope (biopsy). Your doctor may also order a contrast-enhanced upper gastrointestinal X-ray to examine your digestive tract.

By far, the gluten-free diet is the most effective treatment to prevent damage to the intestinal lining from progressing from gluten exposure. The main food sources of gluten are wheat, barley, and rye.
The concept of a gluten-free diet is defined as a diet with a low gluten content that is unlikely to be harmful to the patient and, according to studies, is less than 10mg/day. Applying this diet will help relieve symptoms, repair damage to the digestive tract and prevent complications from progressing to cancer in celiac patients.
Besides, there is an improvement in nutritional indicators including weight gain, BMI increase, and bone density in patients with treatment adherence. Although oats have been shown to be very low in gluten and can be used in a gluten-free diet to provide patients with a source of fiber, B vitamins, magnesium and iron, the inclusion of oats in the diet is important. Eat with great care. In these cases, it is advisable to consult a nutritionist and monitor for early detection if symptoms flare up. For newly diagnosed patients with Celiac, it is necessary to check for deficiencies of micronutrients including iron, folic acid, vitamin D, vitamin B12 for appropriate nutritional advice.
