Isis Valverde reveals difficulties in eating; she understands about celiac disease
Through a post on her social networks, Isis Valverde shared with her followers one of the challenges she faces in her daily life. The actress, who was diagnosed with celiac disease, revealed that she needs to completely avoid consuming gluten due to this condition. She highlighted that this dietary restriction becomes particularly complicated during her travels, where finding adequate food options can be an obstacle.
In the complex universe of adverse reactions to gluten, there are three main conditions that often cause confusion: celiac disease, gluten intolerance (also known as non-celiac gluten sensitivity), and wheat allergy. Doctor Dr. Renata Domingues de Nóbrega explains that each of these conditions has its own characteristics, symptoms, diagnosis and treatment methods. Understanding the differences between them is crucial for proper management and ensuring a better quality of life for those who suffer from these conditions.
Celiac disease: an autoimmune condition
Celiac disease is a chronic autoimmune condition where ingestion of gluten – a protein found in wheat, barley and rye – provokes an immune response that damages the villi of the small intestine . This damage compromises nutrient absorption and can lead to a wide range of symptoms and complications, from digestive problems to malnutrition, osteoporosis and, in rare cases, certain types of intestinal cancer. .
Diagnosis involves blood tests to detect specific antibodies, followed by a biopsy of the small intestine. Treatment is strictly a lifelong gluten-free diet, which allows for recovery of the intestine and remission of symptoms.

Gluten intolerance: a question of sensitivity
Unlike celiac disease, gluten intolerance does not involve an autoimmune or allergic response. Individuals with this condition experience symptoms similar to those of celiac disease — such as abdominal pain, bloating and diarrhea — after ingesting gluten, but without the immunological markers or intestinal damage associated with gluten. celiac disease. The diagnosis is made by exclusion, and the treatment consists of reducing or eliminating gluten from the diet, depending on the severity of the symptoms.
Wheat allergy: an allergic reaction
Wheat allergy is an immune system reaction to wheat proteins, including but not limited to gluten. It is characterized by symptoms that can range from mild to severe, such as skin rashes, gastrointestinal and respiratory problems or, in extreme cases, anaphylaxis. Diagnosis is carried out through skin or blood tests to identify specific IgE antibodies. Management of wheat allergy entails complete avoidance of wheat in all its forms, although, unlike celiac disease, individuals may be able to consume other grains that contain gluten.
Implications for health and quality of life
Dr. Renata Domingues de Nóbrega emphasizes that adopting an appropriate diet is fundamental in managing these conditions. For individuals with celiac disease, a gluten-free diet is not an option, but a lifelong necessity. Those with a gluten intolerance may need to experiment to determine their level of gluten tolerance, while people with a wheat allergy should avoid wheat but can tolerate other grains that contain gluten.
“Living with celiac disease, gluten intolerance or wheat allergy can be challenging, but with the correct diagnosis and appropriate management, it is possible to lead a healthy and fulfilling life. Information is key to understanding these conditions and promoting awareness among both patients and healthcare professionals. Seek medical advice if you suspect any of these conditions and do not self-diagnose based on general information.†. Concludes doctor Renata Domingues de Nóbrega.
