Celiac disease: What I continue to struggle with..

It's been almost two years since my diagnosis, and while I have learned a lot about nutrition, I haven't really thought about the non-food aspect of living with Celiac disease. I'm talking gluten free shampoo, conditioner, hair product, lotion, detergent, cookware, etc.

The non-food aspect of living with Celiac disease is hardly talked about. However, it is equally as important as eating gluten free. I've been reading blogs written by other Celiacs, and those bloggers are 100% gluten free. They use gluten free soaps, and have special cookware, completely dedicated to gluten free cooking. This is something that I am going to start integrating into my life.

Becoming 100% gluten free is tough. It is a complete lifestyle change, and is very expensive. As expensive and life-changing as it is, it is worth the effort. This is for our health. We can either be sick, or make these changes in our lives.

I will be discussing this topic more in the next couple of days.
