Myself, and our two daughters have Celiac Disease. Our girls are 13 and 7. We're one year into this wild ride and we have yet to meet anyone else with this disease. I want to start a support group of sorts, so that my girls can meet other kids with Celiac Disease and I would love to meet other parents as well. We joined the Atlanta ROCK group but we've found that they don't have frequent events. Are we the only Celiacs in the Atlanta area? We would love to meet some Celiac folks like us!

Well, I am in Iowa, mot GA, but I know my 13 yo daughter would love a celiac pen pal! Myself and my 8 yo son are also celiacs, so there is definitely common understanding! Poor hubby is gluten free by default!

Check out the Atlanta Gluten Free Dining Club (I think that's the name) on meetup.com - they have monthly events and lots of information on where to find local products, restaurants, doctors, and gluten free events. There is also the Metro Atlanta Celiacs group which maintains lists of gluten-free friendly restaurants and knowledgeable celiac doctors among other things. They also have events as well.

We live about 45 min north of Atlanta. My son is four (not close to the ages you have) but I would love to find out where you eat and what you buy. There is also a 7 yr old girl that lives close to us that was diagnosed in April.

      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.
