I'm B+, black hair, Brazilian and Italian descent. So far i've been the only one diagnosed in my family but I suspect people on both my mothers and father's side could be celiac.

ARCHIVED Traveling And Need Help
chai replied to Wakingup's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I work away from home a lot and always have to eat protein bars to keep up my energy. I recommend Oskri bars and Lara Bars.
