Show your support for those with Celiac Disease this National Celiac Disease Awareness Day - raise awareness and spread the message of gluten-free living!
Join us in celebrating National Celiac Disease Awareness Day on Sept. 13 by learning more about this condition and spreading awareness. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder caused by gluten intolerance, which affects over 3 million people in the United States alone. While it was first described back in the first century AD, it wasn't until the 1950s that researchers began to understand its cause and effects. Today, there are many resources available to help those affected live a healthy life free from symptoms of celiac disease. So let's come together on this day to raise awareness and support for individuals living with celiac disease!
