Hi.....our family has just gone gluten free. I have learned an increadable amount of stuff from this website but thought it would be nice for our girls to meet some people outside of the family who eat like they do. Some of our extended family our also celiacs but we only see them a few times a year. I also could use some advice finding gluten free foods in the area.

I live in Bettendorf and teach aerobics at Gold's Gym. I'm really want to start a new support group here. gigQC(gluten intolerance group of the quad cities) I have a friend who has a 3 year old little girl and a 2 year old little boy who are both gluten intolerant. We also want to raise awareness in the area. My boss' husband and daughter are both gluten intolerant w/ two confirmed Celiacs in their extended family. Let me know if you have a supportive doctor around here who knows a lot about gluten intolerance/Celiac. None of us have had much luck. We want to organize a Celiac awareness 5K for next summer. Feel free to send me an email at john.resnick@mchsi.com. As for gluten free foods, Hyvee Health Market is good. Get ready to triple your grocery budget though. We are now having to eliminate dairy as well. I'd love to know more about your story and I could share mine. Great to see someone from the area!! Feel free to email my personal address. Thanks!

Hi,

I am the leader of the Quad City Celiac Support Group. Our group provides support and information to those who are on a gluten-free diet. Our group meets every other month with our next meeting being held on Tuesday, November 21 @7pm. We meet at Genesis West Medical Center in Davenport. I would like to invite you and your family to our November meeting. At our meetings we share any latest information on Celiac Disease and the gluten-free diet, gluten-free food tips, recipes, reviews, restaurant information, and much more. I would be happy to try to answer any questions/concerns you might have just email me. I can mail you a packet of helpful information about the gluten-free diet, recipes, baking tips, restaurant information, etc.

Send me a personal email with your mailing address and I will get that out to you. I look forward to hearing from you. You can go to our group's webpage at: www.qcceliacs.org

my email address is: wentworth@netexpress.net

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
