Summary

Patients with type-1 diabetes are more susceptible to motility-related upper gastrointestinal symptoms. Dietary interventions are one of the treatment pillars for these symptoms. Many gastrointestinal conditions other than celiac disease, are being increasingly treated with gluten-free diet (GFD). The role of GFD in non-celiac type-1 diabetic patients with dyspepsia-like symptoms has not been assessed before. In this study, type 1 diabetes patients with concomitant upper gastrointestinal symptoms will be asked to follow a 1-month GFD to assess changes in upper gastrointestinal symptoms and gastroduodenal motility before and after the dietary intervention.
