FYI: Here are some statistics I found for Celiac Disease:
It's estimated 1 out of every 133 people have celiac disease
Out of every 100 people, 97 remain undiagnosed (horrors!)
Over 3 million people have celiac disease
It takes an average of 8 to 11 years for a US celiac to be properly diagnosed (oh horrors again!)
Up to 10% of people with celiac disease also have type 1 diabetes (another autoimmune disease)
Women have celiac disease at a ratio of 3 to 1 when compared to men
There are over 250 possible symptoms related to gluten intolerance
