Gluten-associated conditions we treat

我们的专家是唯一有资格治疗各种谷蛋白相关疾病的专家. We deliver comprehensive treatments for:

乳糜泻

乳糜泻 is one of the most common autoimmune conditions. 它是一种慢性消化系统疾病，会引起小肠炎症. 这种炎症发生在吃了麸质(小麦、黑麦和大麦的蛋白质碎片)之后. Gluten causes an abnormal immune response in people who have celiac disease. The disease tends to run in families, meaning that it may be inherited.

Symptoms and signs of celiac disease include:

• 腹部肿胀
• 便秘
• 腹泻
• 乏力
• 不孕不育
• Iron deficiency anemia
• 营养不良
• Neurological changes like neuropathy, migraine, and mood disorders
• 骨质疏松症
• 减肥 

Non-celiac gluten/wheat sensitivity (NCGS)

Unlike celiac disease, NCGS is not an autoimmune disorder and is not inherited. 吃了谷蛋白之后, people with NCGS have symptoms similar to celiac disease, but the disorder does not damage the intestines.

Symptoms of non-celiac gluten sensitivity include:

• Abdominal pain or cramping
• 腹泻 and constipation
• 气胀
• 精力不足
• Mental fatigue ("brain fog")

Wheat allergy and food intolerances

小麦过敏和其他食物过敏是由对特定食物的异常免疫反应引起的. 免疫反应会引起皮疹、荨麻疹、呼吸困难、呕吐和腹泻. 我们与过敏免疫学的同事密切合作来治疗这些问题.

Other digestive disorders

We have experience treating complex and rare digestive disorders. Our experts use advanced imaging studies, 胶囊内窥镜, 小肠镜深, and other assessments to diagnose and treat:

Autoimmune enteropathy, 腹泻一种罕见的疾病，引起过度腹泻并导致严重的吸收不良. 通过特殊的抗体检测和内窥镜检查，我们可以诊断和管理您的病情.

CVID-enteropathy, 与常见可变免疫缺陷(CVID)相关的肠道损伤和刺激, a disorder that increases the risk of infection.

Eosinophilic GI disorders (EGID or previously eosinophilic gastroenteritis), 一种罕见的影响食道的疾病(嗜酸性食管炎), stomach (eosinophilic gastritis), small bowel and/or colon (eosinophilic enteritis and/or colitis).  Depending on the location of the disease, symptoms may include difficulty swallowing, 胃灼热, 恶心想吐, 呕吐, diarrhea and abdominal pain. Management often includes new medications and/or an elimination diet.

胃肠道的条件, including gastroesophageal reflux disease (acid reflux or GERD) and IBD.

微观结肠炎, a type of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that leads to watery diarrhea. 这种情况包括两种亚型:淋巴细胞性结肠炎和胶原性结肠炎. Unlike ulcerative colitis or Crohn’s colitis, 结肠炎症大多只能在显微镜下看到，因此在结肠镜检查时需要进行活组织检查.

Mast-cell activation syndrome (MCAS), a condition that causes recurring allergy symptoms and diarrhea.

Treatment for celiac disease

The treatment for gluten-associated disorders starts with a gluten-free diet. 我们专业的GI营养师与您密切合作，制定无谷蛋白营养计划. We also help you adopt healthy lifestyle changes and optimize nutrition. 我们陪伴你适应新的习惯，大大提高你的生活质量. 如果需要, we utilize medical treatments for non-responsive celiac disease, refractory celiac disease and co-occurring disorders.
