October is Celiac Awareness Month. We have a good friend who has Celiac Disease or CD as it is sometimes called and we have learned about the disease through her. As I have cooked meals for this friend, I have learned how challenging it can be to eliminate wheat, barley and rye from your diet.
Celiac Disease, according to the Celiac Sprue Association, effects approximately 1 in 133 people in the United States. However, only 3% of these have been detected! Celiac Disease is generally diagnosed with a simple blood test. Currently the cure for celiac disease is to follow a lifelong gluten free diet.
