This protocol addresses patients with coeliac disease who also have concomitant type 1 diabetes mellitus — a combination that creates overlapping and at times competing dietary demands requiring an integrated management approach.
Management involves a dietary plan that brings together gluten-free requirements and the carbohydrate-counting strategies central to type 1 diabetes care, with specific attention to the glycaemic characteristics of gluten-free carbohydrate sources. The complete structured regimen is available via the full protocol.

Patients with CeD and concomitant type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) should follow a dietary plan that integrates gluten‐free requirements with the carbohydrate‐counting strategies essential for T1DM management.
Emphasis on gluten‐free carbohydrate sources with a lower glycaemic index may help support more stable glycaemic control.
