Today the New York Times website published a series of articles on celiac
disease in it’s *Times Health Guide*, which featured NFCA Scientific/Medical
Advisory Board Member Dr. Ritu Verma, director of the Celiac Disease Center
at Children’s Hospital of Pennsylvania.

Dr. Verma highlights NFCA’s efforts to increase the number of gluten-free
menus in restaurants through its Appetite for Awareness and Gluten-Free
Resource Education Training (GREAT) programs.

Also quoted by the NY Times was Dr. Charles Bongiorno, the chief of the
division of gastroenterology and hepatology at the University of Medicine
and Dentistry of New Jersey.

Both Dr. Verma and Dr. Bongiorno  participated in NFCA’s  recent Appetite
for Awareness event, held September 30th 2009 at the Wachovia Center in
Philadelphia.

NFCA would like to thank the author of today’s Times Heath Guide celiac
disease series,  Carolyn Marie Sayre.
