Malnutrition - Untreated celiac disease can lead to malabsorption, which in turn can lead
to malnutrition. This occurs in spite of what appears to be an adequate diet. Because vital
nutrients are lost in the stool rather than absorbed in the bloodstream, malabsorption can
cause a deficiency in vitamins and minerals, vitamin D, folate and iron, resulting in
anemia and weight loss. Malnutrition can cause stunted growth and delayed development
in children.

Loss of calcium and bone density - With continued loss of fat in the stool, calcium and
vitamin D may be lost in excessive amounts. This may result in osteomalacia, a softening
of the bone that in children is also known as rickets, and loss of bone density
(osteoporosis), a condition that leaves your bones fragile and prone to fracture.

Lactose intolerance - Because of damage to your small intestine from gluten, foods that
don't contain gluten also may cause abdominal pain and diarrhea. Some people with
celiac disease aren't able to tolerate milk sugar (lactose) found in dairy products, a
condition called lactose intolerance. If this is the case, you need to limit food and
beverages containing lactose as well as those containing gluten. Once your intestine has
healed, you may be able to tolerate dairy products again. However, some people may
continue to experience lactose intolerance despite successful management of celiac
disease.

Cancer - People with celiac disease who don't maintain a gluten-free diet also have a
greater chance of getting one of several forms of cancer, including intestinal lymphoma
and bowel cancer.

Neurological complications - Celiac disease has also been associated with disorders of
the nervous system, including seizures and nerve damage.
