It’s the first National Celiac Disease Awareness day, and Dr. Gee’s (The Doctor responsible for finding the link between CD and Diet) Birthday. Thanks Dr. Gee!
I searched the news earlier for a good article to post but unfortunately wasn’t able to find out. It’s really important that Awareness is spread about CD, The statistics are almost the same statistics as that of Autism yet hardly anyone has a clue! According to The Gluten Free Bible, almost 1/133 people are diagnosed with CD but most likely 1/100 actually have the disease. It’s startling to think what an impact diagnosis and awareness could make on American Society and Health.
Make sure to spread awareness anyway you can, even the smallest acknowledgement and effort can make a difference! I for one am working today and need to do homework when I do get off but I hope to end the day with some gluten free cooking and food with the boy.
Enjoy your day everyone!
