In Gluten Not Included we are aware of how important it is to have the right food when suffering from gluten intolerance, so we take care of the quality of the ingredients in our bakery with products free of this protein and we offer a rich variety of cookies for the little ones of the house.
After the diagnosis of celiac disease in the child, the most important step is to explain to the child about this condition in a language that the child can understand.
In the previous post we mentioned children's storytelling as a valuable tool in this process. Currently there are numerous resources on the internet that we can use as parents to raise awareness of celiac disease in the child and the environment.
Not only is it vital to dialogue with the child and the family environment, the classroom is also an important part of their life, since it is where they will spend most of their time after home. The didactic resources can also be shared with teachers and the rest of the children in the classroom so that they can support the child in the process of adapting to the new type of feeding.
Below we share a series of resources that can be useful and available to everyone on the Internet:
Celiac Kids Connection
Celiac Kids Connection is a community of families that share ideas, encourages each other, advocates and provides education. We support physically and emotionally healthy gluten-free living for all children with celiac disease.
Children’s Hospital Boston Celiac Disease Program
We understand that it can be a big change to start a gluten-free diet after a diagnosis of celiac disease. We offer many resources to help supplement and support at home after seeing medical specialists.
In addition we have recipes, videos, and patient information through our celiac kids connection.
Kid’s Corner
Children diagnosed with celiac disease must learn to live gluten-free during school, around athletic, social and family events and, eventually, on their own.
This web page contains answers for frequently asked questions as well as suggestions from the kids themselves for enjoying a gluten-free life.
We hope these resources can help you on your journey as a parent of a child with celiac disease to facilitate the changes you need to make in your child's life for better health and wellness.
Gluten Not Included offers you a tasty and healthy option of gluten-free cookies ideal for children's snacks. You can place your orders through our website.
Thank you very much for visiting our blog and we look forward to the next post where we will be sharing topics of interest to those who suffer from gluten intolerance.
