    There are MUCH worse things a person can have than Celiac...Besides, its not 100% that your baby would even have IT ! No one else in my family has celiac, they are ALLLL bread eaters and have perfectly good guts ! If you think about it..and look back even 5 years, look how much gluten free has changed- heck even Betty Crocker has gluten free products and...

    I had a lady tell me a while ago that her grandson's doctor suggested a gluten-free diet(due to autism),,and he also told her that since it could be considered a medically prescribed diet, that they could use it as a deduction on their taxes?? Does anybody know if this is true? I also heard you can write of mileage and costs of traveling to the doctor
