      Study: Hookworm therapy may benefit celiac disease patients

      A small trial of celiac disease patients treated with helminthic therapy were better able to tolerate gluten foods without triggering symptoms, Australian researchers reported in The Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology. The study, which included 12 celiac disease patients who were followed for up to one year, found the eight who completed the trial were able to raise their gluten tolerance by a factor of 60.
