Raleigh NC GFAF Wellness Event Webcast - Traveling Allergy-free, Allergy-free Italian Pastas and Sauces, & How to Bridge the Gap Between Gluten-Free to Grain-Free



Can you believe it's been a whole year since we were back in Raleigh, the Capital city of North Carolina? I can't believe it, but then after 4 years on the road, time seems to slip by faster than I realize. The way I remember is because every year we change up the event a little bit to reflect what is happening in the world of specialized diets for medical necessity. Every year, Raleigh gets some new faces and the best of information,

You can come join us on August 15 at the McKimmon Training and Conference Center at NCSU campus from 10 am - 4 pm. A day full of over 50 vendors, 11 presentations from experts, and a whole lot of communing with fellow people who are seeking better health through dietary change.

It's also time to continue with our fabulous Speaker Webcasts - YAY!
This informative 2 part webcast will feature speakers you can see at the Gluten & Allergen Free Wellness Event in Raleigh.

You can join us right here on August 4 and August 11 from 7:30 pm - 8:45 pm EST
Special guests on August 4 will include interviews with Tarah Jakubiak of Allergic Traveler, Amy Fothergill of The Warm Kitchen, Jennifer Cuevas of The Gluten and Grain Free Gourmet, & more. We are going to talk about traveling allergy-free, Italian pastas and sauces that are deliciously allergy-free, and how to bridge the gap between gluten-free and grain-free. So you don't want to miss this one...
Mark your calendars and we'll meet back here on August 4!

St Louis Part II - Helping School Nurses Detect Celiac Signs and Symptoms, Manufacturing Allergy Free, and Being a Teen While Gluten Free

My apologies for last week's missed webcast. A week of the flu with an upper respiratory infection kept me down for the count all week. We are working on rescheduling last weeks webcast and will make an announcement soon when we can find a date that fits everyone's schedule.

But, the count down is on until the St Louis Gluten and Allergen Free Wellness Event on May 16 - Only 5 days to go! This week's webcast we will speak with: Debbie Simpson, Andrea Kosinski, and Sema Dibooglu on Helping School Nurses Detect Celiac Signs and Symptoms, Manufacturing Allergy Free, and Being a Teen While Gluten Free


We hope you will join us and be watching our social media this week for chances to win free tickets to the event this Saturday! Our Twitter accounts are @GFirresistibly and @GFAFWellness #GFAFEvent. You can find us on FB at http://www.facebook.com/GFAFWellnessEvent

This week's webcast will take place, this Thursday, May 14 at 7:30 pm CST while we are on the road traveling to St Louis. By my guesstimate, we will be somewhere in Kentucky when we chat next. See ya then!
