Celiac disease is a genetic autoimmune disease. The gluten-free diet is
currently the only treatment for people with celiac disease. Strict
gluten-free diet is the only method currently available to treat and
prevent CD complications. The main objective of this article is to
recommend a new classification for food labelling and to suggest that
gluten-free products should contain no gluten. Food products recommended
for patients with CD should really have “zero mg/kg”, that is, contain no
gluten. “Very low gluten” foods may have a minimal gluten concentration,
perhaps <100, but are not recommended for patients with CD. Oats should be
in included in a GFD only if the product has been tested and shown to be
free of gluten. If the oat products are not tested, this information
should be included on the label.
