WELCOME!! This group is for parents, grandparents, or friends that are in contact with children dealing with celiac disease and additional food allergies that limit their diets along with a gluten free diet. This group is for advice, learning, recipes, venting, and support for this lifelong, challenging disease.

To protect the security of this group and keep it spam-free, all new members must be approved.

We will be respectful of others' parenting choices, and provide support and information without criticism. This group is not a place to debate or promote religous or political issues.

***The only medically acceptable treatment for celiac disease is a 100% gluten-free diet for life.***

***Celiac disease affects 1 in 133 Americans and often goes undiagnosed or masks itself as other disorders***

***A child with celiac disease sees an average of eight pediatricians before receiving a correct diagnosis***
