For the many CWD readers who also live with celiac disease, Dr. Green's Celiac Disease: A Hidden Epidemic offers an exceptionally complete yet easy to read guide to celiac disease and strategies for living with it successfully. Dr. Green begins with the underlying biology -- and botany -- of celiac, including an explanation of various grains and why certain ones cause celiac and others don't. You'll learn about the various ways that celiac can manifest itself, as well as related conditions (including type 1 diabetes).
This isn't a celiac cookbook, in case you're looking for that. Celiac Disease: A Hidden Epidemic is a detailed medical text, written for patients but with real substance. Readers will definitely learn a lot about celiac -- some, no doubt, more than their health care teams. Punctuated throughout are sidebars from real people with celiac, which no doubt will help you see that you're not alone. For any family with celiac, Celiac Disease: A Hidden Epidemic is Highly Recommended.
