More than 35,000 Celiac Disease Awareness Bracelets have been sold!!

The Center for Celiac Research is selling celiac awareness bracelets (like the Lance Armstrong LiveStrong wristbands) in children and adult sizes for $2.00 each and also celiac awareness magnets for $3.00 each to raise funds for celiac research, and to continue our efforts in increasing the awareness of celiac disease.

The awareness magnets are another great way to increase the awareness of celiac disease. They can be displayed on your car, refrigerator, file cabinet, and/or given to your doctor to remind him/her of the celiac disease diagnosis. The magnets have our website imprinted on them so the doctor can easily access our information quickly.
