Celiac is on CNN.com!

It is listed at the top, under "latest news"

The headline is "Bread, Pizza can threaten the life of mother, son"

It is a great video under "Health Minute: Celiac Disease"

Dr. Cynthia Rudert, a top Celiac doctor in Atlanta, is interviewed as well.

Check it out!

I saw a blip about celiac on a local news station here in Seattle yesterday. It was maybe 15 seconds long and didn't say any of the symptoms and was very vauge. But I guess at least it is getting out there. My 82 y/o neighbor called me because she saw it also. She had never heard of it until she met me. She was excited to see something about it.

I saw a link which said bread and pizza can threathen the lives of son and mom. I clicked on it and it is a video online about Celiac Disease.

I think we owe a lot of it to Heidi Collins, the CNN anchor who has Celiac and is a spokeperson for Celiac awareness.

I'll take it however I can!

I agree, when I was diagnosed I had absolutely no hope of it ever becoming a common knowledge disease. Since it was so "rare" back then.

Nope, don't mind at all, Judy. It is now listed under the "health" section though...moved from the front page.

      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.

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50. US 2024 - Increased Risk of Herpes Zoster Infection in Patients with Celiac Disease 50 Years Old and Older Sweden 2018 - Increased risk of herpes zoster in patients with coeliac disease - nationwide cohort study

      BFree bread is fortified with vitamins and minerals as is ASDA own-brand gluten-free bread. All the M&S bread seems to be fortified also.
