Celiac disease, also called nontropical sprue or celiac sprue, is an inherited autoimmune digestive disorder in which affected individuals cannot tolerate gluten, a protein constituent of wheat as well as barley, malt, and rye flours. Celiac disease is thought to be triggered by a combination of genetic and environmental factors when a genetically predisposed individual eats foods containing gluten.
