Anonymous asked: How did you become a summer intern?????? Do you need to have Celiac Disease?????
Anonymous asked: What can you do if you happen to eat non gluten free food by accident, to help settle your body down? My sister has had incidents where a restaurant said a meal was gluten free but then used sauces that made her stomach upset.
Anonymous asked: I was diagnosed with Celiacs about a month ago and I am completely overwhelmed! I do not even know where to being. Do you have any good tips for people who are just starting out? Are there cretin things I need to look for that I would not think of? Thank you!
Anonymous asked: Are there any fruits or veggies that have gluten, in and of themselves (not canned/sauced, etc?)

Anonymous asked: Hi..I was diagnosed with Celiac about 6 months ago and this really concerns my boyfriend as far as future children go. My mom had the genetics test done for it, but it was negative and as far as we know, no one else in our family has it. My genetics test showed a mild-moderate risk of it being passed on to children, but what exactly does this mean? What are the chances my children will be born...

I bonded with everyone my age and I still talk to at least five to seven people from camp on a normal basis. I took home a bunch of different food and food brands, a great experience and knowledge...

Summer, Barbeques, Hamburgers, OH MY!

Blog=great idea
Ok so I am neither young nor completely gluten-free. My son was diagnosed with celiac a little over a year ago he is almost 13. I have been thinking about as he gets older how is he going to keep this lifestyle up and how will he afford it? You can use the change in your couch to buy a gluten free pizza. Look forward to seeing what you all come up with.
