Epidemiology of celiac disease Celiac disease is an autoimmune disease that prevents people from ingesting gluten, since this causes damage to their small intestine. In Italy, this disease was more common among women than among men and the group consisting of people aged 18 to 59 years counted the highest number of infected individuals.
Expenditure on gluten-free products Molise – with 1,090 euros per individual affected by celiac disease - recorded the greatest expenditure per capita on gluten-free products nationwide, whereas Apulia was the region with the lowest spending per capita in Italy. In this region the spending on gluten-free products amounted to 494 euros per affected individual in 2022.
