Celiac Awareness Month?

Please forgive me if this has already been posted. I couldn't find anything on it in a search.

I was at our local health food store this evening and got a coupon book on my way out. On the front, at the bottom, is a little blurb about October being Celiac Awareness Month. There is a coupon in the book for Glutino/Gluten Free Pantry items and it states again that October is the month. Has anyone else heard about this?

Edit - I should have looked it up online first. Apparently every October is Celiac Awareness Month. I just had never heard about it before.

Hey, don't apologize. This is a VERY helpful reminder!! Especially since October is right around the corner!

Thanks for posting!

Hey, it was new to me too as I was only diagnosed this May. (Shows how ineffective past campaigns must have been, though...) I hope with the new NIH program this year will really make a mark.

      Thought was finished with this but a friend just sent email saying she takes Tirosin liquid levothyroxine which has no fillers (mentioned by Pgetha above).  Friend's doc sends script to one of Tirosin's direct-mail pharmacies.  Looking that up, government insurance (Medicare/Medicaid) doesn't cover (as Pgetha wrote above).  But if use one of their direct-mail places three month supply is $57/month.  Researching that, happened to learn Yaral also makes a generic gluten-free levothyroxine.

      Lysine is helpful for "cold sores" (oral herpes).

      @Wheatwacked, Are you aware of the interaction of potassium iodide and losartan ?   https://www.drugs.com/drug-interactions/iodine-potassium-iodide-with-losartan-1368-0-1489-0.html#:~:text=Talk to your doctor before,to safely use both medications.

      As a life.long celiac, I understand this.  I simply ask that the medical profession stop disregarding the fact that it should remain a concern for some. It cost me a lot of medical discomforts.

      @dmallbee, about 8% of celiacs react to the oat protein avenin like they do to the wheat protein gluten. In addition, there are some cultivars of oats that apparently do actually contain gluten.
