A new research has found that patients who have celiac disease might also have deficiencies of micro nutrients like vitamin D and B12. Apart from these, other deficiencies might also include folate, iron and copper deficiency.

Zinc deficiency is found to be the most common deficiency in about 59.4 per cent patients of celia disease.

Researchers say that these deficiencies should be treated at the time of diagnosis of the disease itself.
