(HealthNewsDigest.com) - Ukiah, CA - Summer is underway, and eating 'gluten-free' is a hot topic, within and, increasingly, beyond the Celiac and gluten-intolerant community. For 21 years, Pamela's Products has successfully provided baking mixes and finished packaged cookies that focus on great taste so that everyone from Celiacs to wheat-eaters can enjoy equally and together. To that end, the award-winning leader in the gluten-free arena salutes Celiac Awareness Month with involvement in multiple events, and also offers a variety of interesting savory and sweet recipe variations (www.pamelasproducts.com) for family and friends to enjoy on Father's Day, picnics and more.

Pamela's Products is again sponsoring the 8th Annual Making Tracks for Celiacs Walk, benefiting the U. of Maryland, Center for Celiac Research. Local groups holding fundraiser walks are invited to submit sample requests for Pamela's Products to support their walks. The company will also be at the Celiac Disease Foundation's Annual Conference; and is supporting GIG's new "Chef to Plate" initiative that assists chefs in offering gluten-free menu options.

Pamela's Products--a dedicated gluten-free company--produces tried-and-true staples for those on a gluten-free diet including Celiacs, and strongly supports the community through sharing of event information, sponsorship, personal recipe and ingredient guidance, and, of course, samples. Celiac Disease is the world's most common autoimmune disease, with the only treatment today being a strict adherence to a diet devoid of gluten. Gluten is most commonly contained in wheat (durum, semolina, kamut, spelt), rye, barley and triticale. (For more complete information, please visit www.gluten.net, "About".)

Consequently, gluten is in almost everything--burger buns, cookies, pies, tamales, bread-crusted fish, etc.--that is offered at family gatherings, such as Father's Day (and July 4th isn't far behind). Men and women are increasingly testing the gluten-free lifestyle, saying they feel less bloated and just 'better overall'. If the taste is the same or better--Pamela's whole point in creating and developing her dedicated gluten-free line for 21 years--why not make Father's Day gluten-free with a few Pamela's Products recipes, to ensure no one is left out, everything is delicious, and the "Perfect Hostess" title is bestowed? Here are some ideas, with more available on the website:

* Pamela's Waffles (http://www.pamelasproducts.com/recipes/printrecipes/printWaffles.html)

* Chili Cheese Cornbread (http://www.pamelasproducts.com/recipes/printrecipes/printcornbreadchilicheese.html)

* Chocolate Doughnuts (http://www.pamelasproducts.com/recipes/printrecipes/printchocolatedoughnuts.html)

* Pizza (http://www.pamelasproducts.com/recipes/printrecipes/printpizzacrunchy.html)

* Flan (http://www.pamelasproducts.com/recipes/printrecipes/printflancake.html)

* Pamela's Luscious Chocolate Cupcakes (http://www.pamelasproducts.com/recipes/printrecipes/printcupcake.html)

Approximately 1 in 133 people have celiac disease, but only about 3% of them have been diagnosed with the disease, according to the Celiac Sprue Association (CSA), which says that amounts to about 2.1 million people in the U.S. who remain undiagnosed." People with autism spectrum disorders, cancer, wheat allergies, alternative diets, and even those adhering to a Kosher or 'natural' diet, also frequently turn to Pamela's Products for satisfying that sweet tooth or simply for making bread or pancakes.
