What Other Help Is There For Me?

There are numerous support groups available to you. Depending on where you are in the world, start by searching the internet for your nearest group.

This should be your first and best source of help and advice. Your local celiac support group will have information on recommended restaurants, retail outlets that supply gluten free foods, local related events and information.

More importantly, it gives you the opportunity to talk with and meet people, to share stories, tips, recipes etc. It's also nice to have a chat with someone without having to re-explain the whole celiac thing.

You need to educate yourself about the symptoms you are experiencing and the causes.  You should always keep abreast of the latest information on your condition, research, changes in food labelling and food manufacturing.

As well as this website, there are many good books and articles on celiac disease.

We recommend 'The Essential Gluten Free Guide' as an excellent start to your education process.
