Yes, celiac disease is inherited.

The concensus seems to be that yes it is but not in all cases.

Yes. Immediate family members of someone diagnosed should be blood tested every 5 years in case of silent symptoms.

It can be. I was told by a specialist that there is rarely to never one celiac in a family where a member has been diagnosed.

Celiac disease can be hereditary. The general recommendation is that if you test positive for celiac disease, then other members of your immediate family should also consider being tested even if they show no symptoms.

Yes, it is hereditary. I have genetic components.

Celiac disease is inherited in most cases, but it is not the rule that if you have celiac disease, your child must automatically have it. Other triggers are involved in the development of the disease

Yes, it can be hereditary. I have at least one first degree family member who also has celiac

É genética passando adiante através das gerações. O que não significa dizer que uma pessoa que tenha algum dos genes será celíaco. O gene pode ficar inativo uma vida toda.

Celiac disease has several genes that may predispose to develop the disease. Almost all celiac patients have mutations in one of the two genes that are known to this day. However, some celicos with biopsy altered have given negative in these genes.

Yes, it is hereditary. Now there are other conditions like celiac symptoms, or are sensitive to gluten, not celiac, or allergic to gluten. In those cases I don't know if it is hereditary, but in the case of the celiac disease is genetic. So say you are diagnosed with, and your family does not know of anyone celiac, better than all we tested. I will recommend your doctor.

It is not hereditary, if it is genetic.

Yes, it has a marked character genetic. But it is not certain that your children are also offered. Because the disease may be in the genes but can be "asleep" and not act

it is hereditary, and the person is generically predisposed to develop the disease if they consume gluten frequently in your diet.
