I have celiac disease, which has weakened my bones. But I’m male. I thought thin bones were primarily a problem for women? And why should a disease of my intestines affect my bones? Finally, what can I do about it?
htmASKTHEDOCceliacdiseaseweakenedbonesmale

Celiac disease is an autoimmune disease. The immune system attacks the small intestine. It’s triggered by gluten, a protein found in barley, rye and wheat. Oats may also be a problem. But only if small amounts of the other grains get mixed with them during milling or at some other time.
