I attended the Walk in Maryland and it was The Best Celiac Walk I Ever Attended!

I even posted this on the forum....

The past Sunday I attended the NINTH INTERNATIONAL RUN/WALK FOR CELIAC DISEASE! it was a hit! Even the weather was perfect!

The refreshments and Vendor fair where great gluten-free foods were samples was very well received. I guess what I liked most was seeing my favorite company Katz Gluten Free's products showcased there. They even told me they're currently selling there products to Mom's Organic Market and Sunsplash Natural Foods!! I'm thrilled to have my favorite Challah Breads available local!

Than we had the exciting raffles and silent auction. Unfortunately didn't win any...

It was the best Walk I ever attended. I bet those out there in NY, Iowa, and Michigan area you'll enjoy it as well just checkout the dates for the upcoming Walk in your area at www.celiacwalk.org.

waiting to here how well you enjoyed yours...

An update:

I went to the Waterloo/Cedar Falls walk yesterday and it was GREAT. My fiance and I drove three hours from Rockford, IL. and it was worth it! The ladies who ran the group were extremely friendly and made us feel at home. We also left with a backseat full of free samples (many items which we cannot purchase in Rockford - including Go Picnic packs and Katz products). They had many raffles and my fiance won one of them!

They also informed us that Iowa will be having a statewide meeting in October and we have decided that we will be attending that (I was told that Peter Green may be speaking there).

I am so glad we went!

Hi Monica,

My name is Angie. I was diagnosed with Celiac disease about a month ago. Could you please put me in touch with a Celiac Support Grp. in the area? I live in Roscoe, IL.

Thanks!

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @yellowstone! The most common ones seem to be dairy (casein), oats, eggs, soy and corn. "Formed" meat products (because of the "meat glue" used to hold their shape) is a problem for some. But it can be almost anything on an individual basis as your sensitivity to rice proves, since rice is uncommonly a "cross reactor" for celiacs. Some celiacs seem to not do well with any cereal grains.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.
