Hi..I gave blood many times over the past years before being diagnosed with CD. I asked at the Red Cross if CD would prevent further donations, and was told it would not, as CD is not a blood disease. After adhering to the GF diet, my iron returned to normal and I have since donated blood with no problem for me, and no objections by the Red Cross. Good Luck.....Paul (in Toronto, Ontario, Canada)
