1 out of every 100 people in U.S. have celiac disease!

Recent studies have shown that celiac disease affects approximately 1 percent of the U.S. population, and that 97% of them are undiagnosed. Once considered a rare disease of childhood, celiac disease is now recognized as a disease of adults - and the majority of them are either asymptomatic or consulting doctors for a variety of other complaints.

Celiac disease is a serious medical condition, but it is often either masked by or mistaken for a number of more commonly diagnosed conditions. The result is a huge population of patients suffering unnecessarily and at risk for major complications. This sea of missed diagnoses is matched only by the almost total ignorance regarding celiac disease that is currently prevalent across all medical professions.

Dr. Peter Green is one of the few physicians in the United States with both clinical and academic expertise in celiac disease. He has written this book in order to provide patients with the questions they'll need to ask, and the knowledge it will take to understand the answers.

This book is the best source of comprehensive information on celiac disease that I've found. If you've ever wondered what celiac disease is or whether it might affect you, I'd recommend that you read it.
