The correct answer is Celiac or Coeliac disease.

Celiac disease is when your body is unable to digest gluten. When people with this condition do ingest gluten, so for example bread, their body reacts by launching an immune response and attacking the small intestine. It is classed as an autoimmune disorder. It is hereditary but people can also develop it at any age.
