Hi Vik95, here is the Expert Panel's response to your question:

While there is no strong evidence for an association between C3G and GI disorders or food intolerance, in C3G families there is a higher incidence of autoimmune diseases, including celiac disease and type 1 diabetes.

I hope this is helpful and thank you again for your question.
