We present in this paper the results of our experience with 603 cases of celiac disease from which has emerged a useful method of diagnosis of this confusing condition and, more important, an effective cure by diet which we have found successful in cases of all types and degrees of severity.

Since the etiology of celiac disease is unknown and its symptoms occur in many other conditions, it may be helpful to review briefly the history of attempts to find a cure, especially by dietary methods, and to describe the clinical picture of the disease. We shall then outline our diet in detail, report statistically on our 603 cases, and suggest further lines of study.
