I found this fantastic summary of allergy-friendly publications here at celiacsinthehouse.com. I thought it was well worth a read!
"I remember when my son was first diagnosed with celiac disease back in 2005 and I was searching for answers, information and recipes. I looked online and at the library and bookstores. There wasn’t much out there then. One resource I found that gave support and encouragement and ideas on how to feed my son was Gluten Free Living Magazine. The thing I remember most was the supportive, fact-based tone of the magazine. The editor/publisher, Ann Whelan, and Amy Ratner, the associate editor, brought years of personal experience with celiac disease and journalism backgrounds to the magazine that made it a safety net in a world that didn’t even know what celiac disease was. They are still providing reliable news, recipes and that calm, journalistic style that still earns them respect and trust from the gluten-free community. Find them on Facebookand Twitter.
Another publication that was around in our early days was Living Without. In our journey, we were only concerned with avoiding gluten and having multiple food sensitivities was not an issue we faced. As the years went by, we came to find we did have to avoid other foods and that each of us in the house had our own list. That’s when this publication became more helpful. They have moved into the digital world with their easily navigated and interactive website and are active on Facebook and Twitter.
Delight Gluten Free is a newcomer to the publishing and is led by young chef and cookbook author, Vanessa Maltin Weisbord. Their use of podcasts and video how-tos in the kitchen keep them engaged with readers. Join the conversation on Facebook and Twitter.
Allergic Living is another magazine that deals with multiple allergies, sensitivities and celiac. Two of my blogging friends have signed on to be editors and they are both authors and experts in nut allergy and dairy-free issues. Find them on Facebook and Twitter.
Easy Eats is the digital magazine in the mix. It is the upbeat and fun, conversational, photo rich online form of magazine that is led by cookbook author Silvana Nardone. The Easy Eats staff are active on Facebook and Twitter and engaged in the online gluten-free community. Hang out with them onFacebook and Twitter.
The gluten-free world has changed so much since our first diagnosis almost seven years ago and there has been an explosion of research, information, awareness, products and of course recipes. All of these publications help to filter, manage, and interpret all of that information while they are also activists and provide support in the gluten-free and celiac community."
