ABSTRACT
Background:
Celiac disease (CD) is an autoimmune disorder characterized by abnormal serological response (autoimmune anti-tissue-Transglutaminase antibodies) triggered by gluten ingestion in genetically predisposed individuals. The only available effective management for those patients is a strict gluten-free diet.Aim:
To investigate the improvement of CD after completing a traditional herbal supplementation and alternative medicine treatment. Case description, treatment, andresults:
A 23-year-old female presented with a confirmed CD diagnosis (positive anti-tissue Transglutaminase IgA with infiltration of mixed inflammatory cell detected in small bowel biopsy). After 9 months of alternative treatment with traditional herbal supplementation (Taraxaf®, Ferrolina®, and Indomirol®), the clinical, laboratory, and endoscopy profile tests have shown an overall improvement with negative results for anti-tissue Transglutaminase IgA, and normal small bowel mucosal appearance. She was returned to an ordinary diet containing gluten.Conclusion:
A traditional herbal supplementation with specific doses followed by a physician's instruction led to obvious improvement in this CD patient.
