For any of you that get Parents Magazine...check out this month's issue. I
just received my copy in the mail yesterday (9-16-02). There is a blurb
about celiac and breastfeeding! It even got the incidence of celiac
disease correct at 1 in 250 people! It's based on some recent studies and
it simply states that if one continues to breastfeed while introducing
gluten products that the child has a lower incidence of developing
celiac.
Just thought some of you "moms" would want to know because I know this very
issue has been brought up before and there were never any real answers,
just personal experiences.
Bottom line...woo hoo for Parents Magazine! I love that celiac is becoming
more and more known to the general population!
