National Celiac Disease Awareness Day
Every year, National Celiac Disease Awareness Day (September 13th) encourages us to help those with the auto-immune disease that affects 3 million people.
#celiacdiseaseawarenessday
Many people with celiac disease avoid gluten due to the immune response that damages the villi in the small intestine. Over time, the injury will delay the absorption of nutrients into the body. Gluten-free grains such as wheat, barley, rye, and even some oat products contain gluten. The damage is irreversible, and the only known cure is a tightly controlled diet.
The importance of diagnosis, as well as providing resources and assistance to those who have already been diagnosed is highlighted on National Celiac Awareness Day. Families can be helped by alternative meal planning, diet plans, and celiac support groups.
