Are You Serving Certified Gluten-Free Foods This Holiday?
Gluten sensitivity is something that a lot of families have to keep in mind when hosting their holiday get-togethers. In fact, it is estimated that there are 18 million people in the United States suffering from non-celiac gluten sensitivity. That’s six-times the number of people diagnosed with celiac disease.
Therefore, the odds are very good that one or more people in your family can only eat certified gluten free foods. Are you prepared to meet their dietary needs this holiday season?
