Free Blood Screening for celiac disease – Los Angeles, California May
21,2005

May is Celiac Awareness Month.  If you or someone in your family has been
diagnosed with celiac disease, this is a wonderful opportunity for other
family members to be tested even if they have no symptoms.  One out of 133
people in the U.S. is affected with celiac disease and CD occurs in 5-15% of
the offspring and siblings of a person with celiac disease.

There will be free celiac blood screening available for “at risk
individuals only” during Celiac Disease Foundation’s Annual Education
Conference & Food Faire on Saturday, May 21, 2005 at Good Samaritan Hospital
in Los Angeles from 10:00 am – 3:00 pm.

Advance registration is required by all participants.  To register and see
if you qualify as “at risk” call 818/990-2354.   Participation in the blood
test does NOT include registration for the conference or validated parking.
Separate admission is required to attend the seminars or visit vendor
exhibits.

*You do not need a doctor's order to take this test.

*You do not need to fast for this test.

*Those who are pregnant will not be able to take this test as the
enzymes level in pregnant women do not correctly test negative or
positive for celiac disease.

*Any child over the age of 2 years old, with a parent/guardian consent may
take this test.

*If you are already following a gluten-free diet for over 6 months,
this test will not accurately measure the enzymes.  Only those who are not
following the gluten-free diet will receive an accurate test result.

The Blood Screening is sponsored by Prometheus Laboratories and The Binding
Site.    Stephen G. Levinson, MD and Robert D. Zipser, MD will be
supervising this program.

For more information call the foundation at 818/990-2354 or visit the
