Lots of little notes coming out about celiac this week– including latest pharma trials and a new site for gf recipes!
Sometimes we stumble on little celiac stories when we least expect it. This one was a radio story — you’d think the story had nothing to do with celiac disease until the very end.
A dietitians’ association calls for increased awareness of celiac in the medical community. The new research supports the fact that celiac isn’t always easy to diagnose.
My daughter’s school doesn’t start classes until the day after Labor Day, but an email I recently received from my daughter’s cafeteria supervisor got me thinking about the other things I need to do to get my daughter’s teachers on the gluten-free bandwagon for the upcoming school year.
A recent article highlighted the cost differences of regular food with gluten-free food. My boxed macaroni and cheese comparison shows a price difference as high as 200% for the gluten-free version. But why?
My brother who has celiac recently began complaining to my sister-in-law that he was “getting something” somehow. He could just feel it. And a mystery ensued. What could have been causing his reaction–without eating an ounce of gluten. Turns out the answer was in the bathroom.
Three and a half days of outdoors, activity, exercise and of course gluten-free food — and my daughter came home a proud celiac. The kids even concocted a song for their disease that actually is quite catchy. This post looks at the week, what the kids did and why the like to go back!
Technology is changing the way we get our celiac information. Between Twitter and Apple’s Apps — we’re getting newer information quicker than ever before.
With all these food shows out there you would think there would be more love for gluten-free diets. So far not much. See the few examples I found of GF play on food shows, and then I offer my own two cents about how they could play up food sensitivities…
A recent doctor’s visit enlightened us to the selection of gluten-free food at our local children’s hospital. We were wowed and impressed!
