Mainly, it includes deficiency of calcium and vitamin D that affects bone and can complicatedly lead to osteoporosis. People with untreated celiac disease have symptoms like low bone density, leads to porous bone or the bone gets really fragile. This symptom is common for both children and adults having celiac conditions. Hence, treating celiac disease and also low bone density is i
