Gluten-related disorders
Gluten-related disorders is the umbrella term for all diseases triggered by gluten. Gluten-related disorders include celiac disease (CD), non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS), gluten ataxiadermatitis herpetiformis (DH) and wheat allergy. The term "gluten intolerance" should not be used, because it is non specific and carries inherent contradictions and weaknesses. Furthermore, it is not recommended to use the term "gluten sensitivity", and "non-coeliac gluten sensitivity" is to be used instead.
