| Celiac is a long journey which doesn't end at diagnosis. It is a new lifestyle for life! The following will help you keep on track... |
The Diet
The gluten-free (GF) diet is the agreed upon medical treatment for celiac disease (aka gluten
intolerance), an inherited autoimmune disease. Individuals with celiac who eat gluten (the proteins
gliadin and prolamine) can cause damage to their small intestine.

Local Support Group
It's important to talk with others who have learned how to manage the celiac lifestyle! A support
group can help answer some of your questions, give you tips & suggestions and just let you know your
not alone! The Charlotte Celiac Connection is a very informal and, at the present time, small group
serving the Charlotte, NC area. I started this group to provide a place where celiacs or family and
friends of celiacs can meet on a monthly basis. For more information and contacts, click here!

Action & Awareness
Once you learn how to manage your condition day-to-day please consider helping others with celiac and
increasing awareness of our condition. Whatever you do will help make a difference, just make a
commitment to do just one thing. Even just talking about celiac to your circle of people can make a
difference. Even making a donation to one of the medical research, celiac centers or national support
groups will make a difference. You could order a specialized license plate and reaches every driver
behind you; click on plate for more information:
