Can you get celiac disease if you are bulimic?

Celiac disease and bulimia are separate conditions; having bulimia does not cause celiac disease. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder triggered by gluten in genetically predisposed individuals, while bulimia is an eating disorder characterized by binge eating followed by purging. However, individuals with bulimia may experience gastrointestinal symptoms that could overlap with those of celiac disease, and if they have a genetic predisposition, they could develop celiac disease independently. It's important for anyone with eating disorders to seek medical advice for proper diagnosis and treatment.
