Do I need to follow a gluten-free diet if I have been diagnosed with coeliac disease but have never had any symptoms?
If you do have asymptomatic coeliac disease, it is recommended that you follow a gluten-free diet. You will still have damaged villi in your intestines and you may have malabsorption problems that are causing silent conditions such as osteoporosis. If you have doubts about the accuracy of your diagnosis, you may want to work with your doctor to verify the findings.
