Please take time to watch this video on You Tube.  It lasts around 86
minutes.  It's a very informative talk about celiac disease entitled,
"What You Need to Know about Celiac Disease and the Gluten-Free Diet."
It was posted December 20, 2007 on You Tube so occasionally they mention
that something is going to happen "next year"...specifically
announcements by the FDA about labeling gluten free. That will happen in
August of this year.  Hear Andrea Levario of the American Celiac Disease
Alliance speak about this at the June 6-7 Gluten Intolerance Group
Education Conference.  Details at www.gluten.net
<http://www.gluten.net/> . 

It's presented by the William K. Warren Medical Research Center for
Celiac Disease at the University of California, San Diego
http://celiaccenter.ucsd.edu <http://celiaccenter.ucsd.edu/> .  Featured
speakers are Dr. Martin F. Kagnoff, Director of the Wm. K. Warren
Medical Research Center for Celiac Disease, Professor of Medicine &
Pediatrics, UCSD School of Medicine, Dr. Gregory Harmon, UCSD Center for
Celiac Disease Gastroenterologist and Dr. Susan Algert, PhD, Registered
Dietician, Research Center for Celiac Disease, UCSD Department of
Medicine.  It's 86 minutes of your time very well spent.  Dr. Algert
references the Gluten Intolerance Group's program "Gluten Free
Certification Organization GFCO" in her talk when she speaks about
testing companies for gluten in their products.  She mentions Shelley
Case's book as a wonderful reference book for your gluten free reference
library.  Shelley will also be a speaker at the June GIG conference.
