Sure…I could write a lot of words about the following videos but blah, blah, blah. Sometimes, videos just speak for themselves. Just remember, celiac disease bites, but a good attitude and strong sense of humor go a long way.
Lesson 1: Celiac Disease Sucks
(Can’t see the above video? Watch it here.)
Lesson 2: A Great Attitude is Your Best Friend
(Can’t see the above video? Watch it here.)
Lesson 3: Laughter Will Always be Your Best Medicine
(Can’t see the above video? Watch it here.)
Dude question: Which is your favorite video??
1st vid – Celiac disease reaction is NOT an allergy
Ha! That music video is over the top!!
My favorite celiac youtube video is this one
Celiac Disease: What kids have to say: http://youtu.be/kGR6lgh2LdE
Sarah – I want to hug them! I just…want to hug them. 🙁
I’ve seen that one too…it’s a keeper for sure.
Three is my favorite! Clever & relatable. Did not relat to 1. In twenty years of having celiac no one has ever called me called picky! 2 video kept stalling, gave up on it.
I love the music video. The girls are totally awesome and cool!!
Yeah…you can tell a lot of work went into it. Kudos to them.
The first one was awesome but I do think they are a great trio together….good lessons for all. I want to forward all of them to everyone I know. The allergy reference was incorrect but really who cares at this point.
I don’t get too worked up about the allergy thing. I’m all about facts, etc. but not everyone is gonna get that it’s different than an allergy.
the music video was pretty good.
I like this video: Australian Terry Mann’s take on Royals (not just a Lorde song, also aussie chocolate biscuits) – he has a bonus load of food issues – fructose malabsorption, lactose intolerance and coeliac disease.
and the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gsz_IRd80OM
Love that video…

What do you mean “start”? 😉
I like video #3- It feels really good to laugh. Also feels really good to have found you and the community you have built here. I am ten days into this celiac/ gluten-free life after quite a bit of my life struggling with health problems. Your site and all its information has been a great comfort to me, and I just wanted to say thank you. I now feel hopeful instead of fearful about this new life and what the future holds. Thanks so very much!
Happy to be here for you Julie. Welcome to the community and welcome to your new journey. You’ll do great.
Even this 71-year-old late-diagnosed celiac loves the music video. The others are bit sappy and over-earnest. Informative, I guess, but not my cup of tea. And while I agree with the “not an allergy” comment above, sometimes that’s the only way to communicate the problem to the unaware.
