Why the upswing in people becoming gluten free and turning to gluten free products? Some people don’t really get it, but we do and learning more every day.

We take Celiac Disease and gluten intolerance very seriously. Celiac Disease affects 1% of healthy, average Americans. That means at least 3 million people in our country are living with Celiac disease, but 97% of them are undiagnosed.

So, more than likely the trend is upward because every day more and more of that 97% of 3 million people are feeling symptoms and turning to a gluten free diet even though they have not been diagnosed with Celiac Disease. Even if being gluten free just makes you feel better, that’s OK, too.

That’s why we are in this with you. You don’t have to be have Celiac Disease or be gluten intolerant to understand. Who knows, perhaps we are and don’t know it.

Baking with Love,
Johanna
