(June 22, 2026) Abdominal pain, diarrhea, fatigue, or deficiency symptoms—celiac disease can cause a wide variety of symptoms and therefore sometimes goes undiagnosed for a long time. But what actually happens in the body when someone has celiac disease? And why is a strictly gluten-free diet so important?

In this video, Prof. Dr. Peter Hasselblatt, Senior Attending Physician in the Department of Medicine II at the Uniklinik Freiburg, explains how to recognize celiac disease, how the condition is diagnosed, and what those affected should keep in mind in their daily lives. Important: If you have persistent symptoms or suspect you may have celiac disease, you should seek medical advice. Please do not start a gluten-free diet on your own before receiving a diagnosis, as this can affect test results.
