95% of individuals with celiac disease are undiagnosed. Some suffer severe migraines or gastrointestinal issues. Others languish from depression or fatigue. Year after year, they waste thousands of healthcare dollars looking for an explanation.
Diagnosis is just the beginning. Celiac and gluten sensitive individuals must relearn how to shop, cook and order food. They need to fill up on nutrients while cutting out essential foods. They must be on the lookout for related diseases like osteoporosis, thyroid disease and cancer, and watch what they eat on a daily basis.
NFCA’s GREAT Healthcare programs offer the knowledge and tools to recognize signs of celiac disease and help diagnosed celiacs maintain a gluten-free diet.
Training is completed online at your own pace. No need to rearrange schedules or cut appointments short.
