I was dismayed by Ms Edwards negative attitude toward celiac disease. I mean, I'd hardly call it a "death sentence." I also thought she made several misrepresentations about how difficult shopping is, etc. If she's hoping to build her business with this kind of "publicity" I think she'll be disappointed. I actually emailed her and expressed my concern about some of her comments.

Both of my kids were introduced wheat/gluten at the proper time to be in that window. Both of my kids are now on a gluten free diet for life.

Yes...here are two more articles--sorry, but the past two or three days, almost all of the articles have been similar--on the wheat introduction thing:

So, I just found out that my parents fed me cereal at 2 1/2 weeks!!!! That explains a lot. I told my Mom I was protesting and that I thought she should have to follow my diet since she might have been the cause of it. ha!

I am posting this in both the Celiac Disease in the News thread and the Celiac in Toronto News Today thread because it pertains to communion, but it's also celiac disease in the news...deserves to be in both:

Article entitled what would Jesus do? ....the question we've all been asking ourselves <_< and that I think we can make a fair assumption about.

Also pasted below since some newspapers knock articles off the internet or make you pay after a few days:

What would Jesus do?

Published in the Asbury Park Press 05/20/05

Holy Communion, a sacrament at the heart of Catholicism, begins as a joyous occasion for second-graders when they join their congregation in receiving the Holy Eucharist at the altar.

But for a little girl from Brielle, that step has been on hold. A year ago, the Diocese of Trenton said her First Holy Communion was not valid because she received a rice-based wafer, rather than a wheat-based host sanctioned by the Church. A medical condition, celiac-sprue disease, prevents her from ingesting wheat-based products

Thanks for posting the Duluth News Tribune article about the gluten-free food store/restaurant in Hayward, Wisconsin. The article has a couple of "gluten-free" errors, but is great otherwise. I've eaten food from there when I've been visiting family in the region and it was good. I hadn't had a pasty in a long time.

There's another article, but it requires you to register at a newspaper and it doesn't sound much different from the others I've posted.

Thanks celiac3270, that's a very interesting article which I missed.

A close reading proves that things aren't as good in the UK as some elsewhere like to say.

With specific regard to coeliac disease notice how many weeks it took to organise a biopsy and how many more weeks it took to get the results.

The latest guidance is that these should happen immediately, but it is scarcely done.

It's commonplace not to get a biopsy at all and no diagnosis either.

The Bradford doctor is exceptionally good compared to most here.

Sure :). A day or two ago I signed up for alerts on "coeliac" as well as "gluten" and "celiac" so that I could also post stuff for those not in North America. I'll try to put something next to those posts, such as UK or Europe or not US or something so they're easier to find:

Oops...this one is for the UK that I got, but it's a job offer, lol, which mentions "coeliac" in it....ugg.

There was one on embryonic stem cell research and celiac disease, but they won't let me access it since it was published yesterday, not today <_<

Awhile ago, I posted about the San Francisco something article... ;) anyway, they have letters to the editor, now...found out about this from the St. Johns List Serv:

Guess what? Celiac referred to as an allergy? There's another topic on that, so maybe I'll provide a link to this one...

      Celiac attack confusion and anxiety

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi all ! Can a celiac attack be so intense that it causes your entire body to work in reverse? Meaning really bad pain,  neuropathy and muscle,  jaw pain,  the stomach issues , Horrible anxiety and confusion??  I had a Tums and you would think I ate poison. My jaw and stomach did not like it . Not the norm for me. Things that are simple are just out of control. Anyone ever have this happen??  I'm trying to figure out what I ate or did to bring on a celiac like attack. I had an idea before but yesterday I didn't have any gluten unless it was in a medication ?! Any positive suggestions ??  Thank you

      Gluten free stuff

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

      Gluten free stuff

      By trents · Posted

      Tammy, in the food industry, "gluten free" doesn't mean the same thing as "no gluten". As Scott explained, the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) allows food companies to use the "gluten-free" label as long as the product does not contain more than 20 ppm (parts per million) of gluten. This number is based on studies the FDA did years ago to determine the reaction threshold for those with celiac disease. And the 20 ppm figure works for the majority of celiacs. There are those who are more sensitive, however, who still react to that amount. There is another, stricter standard known as "Certified Gluten Free" which was developed by a third party organization known as GFCO which requires not more than 10 ppm of gluten. So, when you see "GFCO" or "Certified Gluten Free" labels on food items you know they are manufactured with a stricter standard concerning gluten content. Having said all that, even though you may read the disclaimer on a food item that says the spices may contain wheat, barley or rye (the gluten grains), you should be able to trust that the amount of gluten the spices may contain is so small it allows the total product to meet the requirements of gluten free or certified gluten free labeling. I hope this helps.
