Coming up in January, I will be going gluten-free and living the lifestyle of a person with celiac disease. Why am I doing this? Read on…
Changing they way you do communion at church is a big adjustment, for you and your church. Here are some quick hints as you prepare to receive communion — the gluten-free way.
I remember being a new parent of a celiac child and then getting pregnant with baby #2. When she was born we were very careful about not introducing gluten for the first year…but was that necessary? New information is out on introducing food allergens and that led me to research the latest information on introducing gluten to our children’s diets.
Proof to never let your gluten-free guard down. Just when you thought it was safe to judge food from the gluten-free identifier on the shelf, think again. This luxury of a gluten-free product sticker on the shelf, identifying gluten-free items, was incorrect for the first time I’ve ever seen; incorrectly marking a product that had wheat — as gluten-free.
A great idea for a last-minute gift for the celiac in your life!

This is a topic I get fiesty about — read on.
Help! Just when I had a rhythm going ensuring my starving celiac daughter had the snacks she needed for school, she tells me she’s sick of them! I need inspiration for a young lady who’s bored with her mid-morning hunger fix!
It can be very hard attending any event that involves a meal (wedding, funeral, family reunion), but I have a success story I hope will inspire you to ask some pressing questions of the organizers of your next event. You may be surprised at the answer.
First the internet goes all abuzz over new research connecting type 1 diabetes and celiac disease. Now I’m following up with one parent who quickly learned how to handle both diseases when her son had a double diagnosis. How does this research sit with people directly impacted by the diseases?
