Benjamin is raising money for the colorado center for celiac disease to support their research into celiac disease and gluten-related disorders.

Colorado Center for Celiac Disease

At the Colorado Center for Celiac Disease (CCCD), children and adolescents with suspected or known celiac disease and gluten-related disorders evaluated and treated. In particular,  screening and management of children with a family history (genetic risk) of celiac disease is provided.

Research

Our ongoing unique population-based study of Celiac Disease has shown a much higher prevalence than previously described in the United States. Translational studies have identified novel blood tests for celiac disease and have described the pathogenetic relationships of celiac disease with diabetes. Studies of the effect of a gluten free diet on a variety of parameters are ongoing.
