Hi All,
Following on the recent thread on the topic of  being overweight and having
undiagnosed celiac disease, the BMJ just published a *very* interesting
article reporting that of 50 newly diagnosed celiac patients, 11 were
underweight, 22 were within the normal range, and 17 were overweight. That
would appear to challenge the
conventional perspective on underweight celiacs. The whole article is quite
interesting and can be found at:

I hope that is helpful.
best wishes,
Ron Hoggan
