Celebrate Gluten Free: Mom Bag for College

So True

"You're not happy unless you think you're happy."

“The problem with having a sense of humor is often that people you use it on aren't in a very good mood.”

Pessimist : A person who says that O is the last letter of ZERO, instead of the first letter in word OPPORTUNITY.

"Either you run the day or the day runs you."

“If you're bored with life - you don't get up every morning with a burning desire to do things - you don't have enough goals.”

"You're not happy unless you think you're happy."

“It's not the load that breaks you down - its the way you carry it”

What is Celiac's Disease

Celiac disease is a serious autoimmune disease that occurs in genetically predisposed people where the ingestion of gluten leads to damage in the small intestine. It is estimated to affect 1 in 100 people worldwide. Two and one-half million Americans are undiagnosed and are at risk for long-term health complications.

When people with celiac disease eat gluten (a protein found in wheat, rye and barley), their body mounts an immune response that attacks the small intestine. These attacks lead to damage on the villi, small fingerlike projections that line the small intestine, that promote nutrient absorption. When the villi get damaged, nutrients cannot be absorbed properly into the body.

Celiac disease is hereditary, meaning that it runs in families. People with a first-degree relative with celiac disease (parent, child, sibling) have a 1 in 10 risk of developing celiac disease.

Celiac disease can develop at any age after people start eating foods or medicines that contain gluten. Left untreated, celiac disease can lead to additional serious health problems.
