About the Book

This is the first practical survival guide for families of children and teenagers with this life-long digestive disorder affecting nearly two million Americans. Celiac disease results from intolerance of gluten, a substance found in wheat, rye, barley, oats, and many other food additives. A gluten-free diet is the only known treatment for this condition. Full of compassionate advice and based on first-hand experience, "Kids with Celiac Disuse" covers everything from medical issues to shopping, food preparation, menu and snack ideas, and from eating outside the home to behavior management.
