ACCEPT:
- If donor has coeliac disease that is treated by diet and/or oral vitamin supplements only (even if vitamins are prescribed)
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Coeliac disease is an abnormal immune response to gluten (contained in some cereals, particularly wheat) and can damage the small bowel. This in turn can lead to poor absorption of minerals and vitamins that are necessary to make blood. These problems can be avoided or reversed by avoiding gluten
