(http://ow.ly/EwDj30nAPMc)
Celiac disease is an allergy to gluten, a protein found in wheat, rye, barley, and oats. If someone with celiac disease eats gluten, an immune reaction occurs which damages the small intestine, impeding its ability to absorb nutrients and break down foods. Symptoms of celiac disease may include weight loss, bloating, abdominal pain, and/or diarrhea. Visit our practice site to learn more: (http://ow.ly/EwDj30nAPMc)

Biologic medications target the immune system to decrease the inflammation that results in symptoms which characterize inflammatory bowel disease. Biologics can help you achieve and maintain remission of ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease. Typically, biologic medications are provided through an IV into the body so it bypasses the digestive system which could be inflamed and unable to properly absorb oral medications.
