Increased risk of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in patients with coeliac disease on a gluten‐free diet: beyond traditional metabolic factors

Abstract

More than one-third of CD patients adhering to a GFD had concurrent NAFLD, accounting for a three-fold increased risk compared to the general population. Dietary advice provided using a patient-tailored approach should assist CD patients with NAFLD in achieving an appropriate nutritional intake whilst reducing the risk of long-term liver-related events.
