Description:

The Westchester Celiac Sprue Support Group is pleased to announce its participation in the Sixth International Walk for Celiac Disease. Our Walk will be held at Rockland Lake State Park along a 3-mile path in a beautiful wooded area. We invite you to join with us and thousands of other Walkers, in cities across the U.S. in supporting this great event.

Location: Rockland Lake State Park, Congers, N.Y.

The Park is on Route 9W, 3 miles north of the Tappan Zee Bridge

Date: Sunday June 3, 2007

Time: Registration - 9:00 A.M.

Walk Start - 10:00 A.M.

There will be plenty of gluten-free snacks and beverages. We will have resource information on hand especially helpful for newly-diagnosed Celiacs.

There will be a raffle, with many great prizes. T-shirts commemorating the event will be distributed to all participants.

Registration fees are $15 for adults and $10 for children. For a Registration Form/Pledge Sheet, email Arlene and Cliff Blaker at cblaker@millerblaker.com. Also, if you need directions to the Park, let us know and we will help you get there.

Over the last five years, the Westchester Celiac Sprue Support Group's participation in the International Celiac Walks have raised more than $100,000. Those proceeds were donated to fund research at the University of Maryland Center for Celiac Research and at the Celiac Disease Center at Columbia University.

Please join with us June 3 to help make a positive impact for Celiac Disease

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      A friend of mine is in the bar trade most of his life and has never heard of lines being mixed for different type of beers and ciders. Better to stick with cans.

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      Thanks very much for confirming my suspicion @Scott Adams! That helps a lot because I'm really trying to track down and get rid of these sources of cross-contact and so I'm going to just rule out the draft ciders and hope that helps. Also @Rogol72 its nice to hear you haven't had a problem on that side of the pond - draft cider lines being used for cider only certainly sounds like the right way to do it, but I think that must not always be practiced over here!

      Gluten challenge and Hashimoto's Thyroiditis

      I didn't ask a doctor about this actually. I did ask several doctors a long time ago and they told me gluten has nothing to do with hashimoto's. One of them told me to do a gluten challenge to test for celiac, but at the time I was in graduate school so couldn't afford to be even more ill than I was. If you have the symptoms, I really don't advise you to do a gluten challenge. It messed me up mentally and physically for months. At the same time, I benefitted from doing the challenge in the sense that it convinced me that all my symptoms were truly from gluten - even stuff like insomnia! So now I am terrified to eat gluten, whereas before I would have a little once in a while and not notice anything dramatic.

      I am in a similar situation where I can't feasibly do a gluten challenge but have all the symptoms and I have 2 celiac genes. I'm curious if your doctor advised you to eat as if you had a diagnosis or if they were more dismissive about it.

      Negative, although I had most of the symptoms of celiac disease. I now eat as if I had a diagnosis.
