Is coeliac disease a cause of undernutrition?

0

Only 22% of people diagnosed with coeliac disease will have a BMI less than 20 (1). One study showed that 39% of people are in fact overweight (2). Most people with coeliac disease gain weight following diagnosis as absorption increases. Others find it hard to regain any weight lost prior to diagnosis.
