Free Resources: Coeliac disease and Down’s syndrome

Coeliac disease is more common in people with Down syndrome compared to those without Down syndrome. It can develop at any age throughout a person’s life. Brian Chicoine and the team at the Adult Down Syndrome Centre in Illinois have created a free set of visual resources on coeliac disease which include a general overview of celiac disease, a list of gluten-free foods, and tips for eating gluten-free at restaurants and parties. You can view these here: Celiac Disease Visuals | Adult Down Syndrome Center
