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.

This group does not accept members with the goal of advertising products and/or self promoting ideals.

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

*Celiac disease affects 1 in 131 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.
