About This Blog

A guide to living Gluten-Free in metropolitan South Florida.

I'm not looking to become "Gluten-Free Guy" and wax lyrical on the joys of living with celiac disease, nor am I interested in compiling a recipe book. I just know how hard it is to find the foods we like and safe places to eat.

A few years ago, I created the South Florida Theatre Scene, so people could find reviews, articles, and theatre websites all in one place. And that's what I want to do with Gluten-Free South Florida.

About Celiac Disease/Gluten Free Diet

Celiac disease, also known as gluten intolerance, is a genetic disorder that affects 1 in 133 Americans. Symptoms of celiac disease can range from the classic features, such as diarrhea, weight loss, and malnutrition, to latent symptoms such as isolated nutrient deficiencies but no gastrointestinal symptoms.

The only acceptable treatment for celiac disease is strict adherence to a 100% gluten-free diet for life. An adherence to a gluten-free diet can prevent almost all complications caused by the disease. A gluten-free diet means avoiding all products that contain wheat, rye and barley, or any of their derivatives. This is a difficult task as there are many hidden sources of gluten found in the ingredients of many processed foods.
