I was flipping through the channels tonight (Wednesday) and I heard the magic word "gluten". I stopped to see what I was missing, and it was a whole segment on Celiac Disease on this show I've never heard of "Moms on the Move" on PAX... sort of a feel good moms save the world show. They interview a woman who saw 22 doctors before being diagnosed. Check it out here.
It was a pretty good segment.

Thank you for sharing this Richard. It was a good article. I read it, instead of listening - he he.

Nice!
Good Housekeeping did an article a few months back. I think it featured Alice Bast as well.

Here's a link to the featured guests' website. It mentions that celiac disease will get a mention in BOTH Fortune and Money magazines!
http://www.celiaccentral.org/
Fortune and Money magazines to feature celiac disease
"This is a tremendous opportunity to raise awareness for celiac disease! Time Warner has approached NFCA asking us to work on a joint project for celiac disease for two of their publications, FORTUNE and MONEY magazines.
From time to time, FORTUNE and MONEY include special information features on a specific topic. We are pleased and proud to say that their special sections for the November 13th issue of FORTUNE and the December issue of MONEY will be about celiac disease.
Quite naturally, they have asked us for some direction in securing sponsors for advertisements and supporting text. It is unlikely that the Time Warner sales contacts will know about celiac disease or understand why this section is so important. Our goal is to steer these Time Warner sales folks to the right department or to someone will advocate that an ad be placed in this Special Section.
NFCA is reaching out to the celiac community for any help you can give us by forwarding this information to potential corporate sponsors and/or offering to make introductions. The one-page description of the benefits of advertising in this Special Section of FORTUNE and MONEY shown below gives more information about the program. "
