Question

Coeliac disease affects several million people in the world. For these people eating a protein called gluten can lead to the destruction of villi. If the villi are destroyed, people with coeliac disease may not grow properly. Suggest why.

Answer 1

Someone with celiac disease may feel tired and could be irritable. Some also have skin rashes and mouth sores. The problem is sometimes mistaken for other digestive problems called inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) or lactose intolerance. And in some cases, a kid won't have any symptoms and then will all of a sudden start having problems during a time of stress, such as after an injury.
