Does anyone know of any support groups in or near Charlotte, NC? If not, does anyone know where any good health food stores are here? I can't find any! :)

I haven't found any support groups here in Charlotte but I did want to let you guys know (in case someone from Charlotte reads this) that I found a really good health food store called Home Economist in Davidson, NC. They also have two more stores in Charlotte too. They are a very large health food grocery store and they have TONS of gluten free stuff. Super store!!! Just wanted to let you know! :)

Dang! I am about to move to Charlotte in a couple weeks, and was wondering the same thing.

Maybe we could start our own support group....

That's a good idea. I haven't met anyone around here that have our problem (mainly because I'm still trying to figure out how to contol it and am too wound up in that!) but I'm sure they're out there. I think it's just nice to actually meet someone in person that knows what I'm going through. I don't know how the PM thing works on this website but when I figure it out, I'll send you my email address and when you move here I could email you to help you learn your way around. Do you know people here?

I know my boyfriend, and his family, and that's about it!

I'm going to johnson and wales in the fall.

It would be really great to have a friend going through the same thing! I'm new to it, and kinda struggling, so it would be nice to have even just a shopping buddy! I'm kind of young (21) but promise, I'm cool :)

There is an active celiac support group in Charlotte. Here is their website:

Open Original Shared Link

Please note that Dr. Peter Green a well-known celiac expert will be speaking on May 13. Last year they had Ivor Hill speak and I went to hear him. Unfortunately, I won't be able to attend Dr. Green's talk.

There's a triangle group as well, but I missed the last meeting due to transportation issues.

I was living in Charlotte, NC when I was diagnosed with celiac disease. The support group was a life-saver for me and they held meetings once a quarter. They were a great help and they were very informed of the current news about celiac. The two organizers while I was there were Daphne (704)366-3493 and Caroline (704) 588-6842. Good luck! I now live in Raleigh and the support group here is not very active. I sure miss the folks in Charlotte.

      Are Lindt chocolate balls gluten free?

      By RUKen · Posted

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.

      I've used magnesium taurinate and magnesium taurate vitamins.  Didn't notice much of a difference when I used them.

      More great tips, and a good excuse to shop at M&S and also buy more iced buns!   I wish we had an ASDA near us, as the few times we've been to one their gluten-free pasta range seemed very reasonably priced compared to other shops.  Thanks so much, @Russ H.
