Mouth Ulcers and Coeliac Disease

Mouth ulcers are a common symptom of coeliac disease.

Around 1/2 million people in the UK have coeliac disease but have yet to be diagnosed.

• Once diagnosed, coeliacs can lead a normal life by avoiding gluten in the diet

• Gluten is found in rye and barley as well as wheat products

• If you have coeliac disease there is a 1 in 10 chance that your children also have coeliac disease

• Early diagnosis and treatment can help reduce the risk of infertility, osteoporosis and cancer

IMPORTANT: If you get a positie result with the Biocard Celiac Test it is essential that you continue with a normal diet until you have the diagnosis confirmed by an intestinal biopsy.
