The Living Gluten Free Challenge

Living gluten free can be challenging. My family discovered this a little over two years ago when our teen daughter was diagnosed. It came as a complete shock since she had shown no obvious symptoms leading up to her dramatic and sudden onset of Celiac Disease. There was no known family history, and though I had heard of this condition, I essentially knew nothing. Once we had the diagnosis by biopsy, it was a steep learning curve for my daughter and our family. The task of feeding my daughter had suddenly seemed like a maze of inedible booby traps. But we got through it. And if you are a new Celiac you will adapt too. My hope with this blog is to help new Celiac's, as well as those who have been living gluten free for years, find resources to live better. You do not need to feel deprived any longer, or overwhelmed by "what can I eat?".
