Maintaining a Healthy Weight While Living Gluten-Free:
The Importance of Physical Activity & Mindful Eating
8:30 p.m. ET/5:30 p.m. PT
http://bit.ly/yPCxpI
Weight is a popular topic when it comes to questions about celiac disease and the gluten-free diet. While a sign of undiagnosed celiac disease can be weight loss, research has shown that this disease can impact overweight individuals, too. Further, many newly diagnosed celiacs experience the common unwanted reality of weight gain due to their small intestine now able to absorb more of the nutrients they are consuming.
Join NFCA as Amy Jones, MS, RD, LD, Chief Clinical Dietitian and Celiac Support Group Facilitator, Mary Rutan Hospital, educates gluten-free individuals on how to manage their weight through a nutritious gluten-free diet using a healthy fitness regimen and a mindful approach to eating.
Sponsored by Blue Diamond and Vitacost, this webinar is free of charge and the only requirement is a working Internet connection!
Webinar participants will have the chance for Amy to incorporate their questions and concerns into her presentation. Deadline for questions is Tuesday, April 3. Please email questions to kvoorhees@celiaccentral.org with subject lines entitled "April Webinar Q&A."
