My daughter aged 14 years is suffering from celiac disease (glutin sensitive). We could detect it only 2 years ago. We are taking ultimate care and now she has started showing improvement in weight and height gain. I request for expert views on this disease like whether she would ever be able to consume glutin products in future and what type of precautions we should take in respect of her growth particularily at this age.

Gluten sensitivity is life long, so no need to experiment. Stick to gluten free diet forever. Keep on giving her vitamin and mineral supplements as such patients are likely to develop deficiency of these avoid constipation by taking lots of fruits and vegetables drink plenty of water.
