About
Celiac Disease and Gluten Intolerance
Celiac Disease, also known as Gluten Intolerance is an autoimmune inflammatory disease of the small intestine. The ingestion of gluten, the proteins found in wheat, rye, oats, and barley cause symptoms to occur. This digestive disease often causes damages to the small intestine and interferes with absorption of nutrients from food. When people with Celiac Disease and Gluten Intolerance eat foods containing gluten, their immune system responds by damaging the small intestine and/or other symptoms.

We are 2 women in business. One is a “young” granny, and the other is a ‘young-at-heart’ granny. Between the 2 of us, we have 15 grand children.
I, Maryclara, have known that I am a celiac for 7 years. I Am now dealing with the effects of the late diagnosis. Therefore, I would like to educate as many people as possible at a much younger age.
A man came into out shop who had just been diagnosed with celiac spru and showed us his legs. I Was dumbfounded! That’s exactly how my father’s legs looked, and daddy thought it was bruising because he was an auto mechanic and always bumped into things! He never knew that it wasn’t simple bruising! (And now I know where I came up with celiac disease.)
We have also learned that we do not have all the answers. This isn’t something that you can read an article and you now have all the facts about it. Being celiac is a constant learning process. And the symptoms are different in each case.
We all know someone or know ‘of’ someone who has this problem. We, at gluten free essentials of cloud county, will continue to do our best to make foods that are safe as well as great tasting.
