The holidays are full of dietary pitfalls for even the most careful eater. But those goodies can spell trouble for anyone, especially kids, suffering from celiac disease or other gluten-related problems.
We recently held a highly informative and helpful teleclass on this topic, generously sponsored by NYU Langone Medical Center and expertly presented by Ayelet Schieber, pediatric RD, MS at the Center’s Celiac Disease and Gluten-Related Disorders Program.
Ayelet discussed how parents can help their children navigate the season while still enjoying its delicious treats. She covered topics such as:
- What to avoid
- How to talk to family and friends about what your child can or cannot eat
- Tips for making sure your child knows what they can eat
- Tasty alternative recipes for go-to holiday goodies
In case you missed it, you can listen to the teleclass recording here.
