Hi, my daughter was diagnosed three weeks ago w/celiac disease and I'm interested in finding a support group near us. Any information would be very helpful. Thanks.

im from South Florida the Fort Lauderdale area , and don't know of any but if you find any let me know. Good luck to both of you. It can be a little difficult at first but not so bad once you the get the hang of the diet. :)

I am not sure how close any of these are to you but I know I have to drive over an hour away to get to the one closest to me (in GA). I hope this helps you.

      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.

      Yarrow Pom works really well with the skin issues I found out.I had to stop so my doterra because dealing with medical celiac circus. I had shingles in Feb 2023. Prayers for healing

      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.
