digestive problems Among the unpleasantnesses is weight loss and odorous stool which tends to float Anoter name for the problem is gluteninduced enteropathy Enteropathy is thémedical term referring to any disease of the intestines Thi sprue is treated by avoi ing all gluten foods Because of the presence of gluten in rye oats and barley the diet may be quite restric tive People with this have to be close label readers There are two other kinds of sprue One is called celiac disease Thats childhood digestive problem which tends to improve with years Tropical sprue is similar problem socalled because of its prevalence in tropical areas The symptoms are similar to other forms of sprue butthe cause is not clear An infection may be part of it Werenot sure This kind of sprue requires dif
