Social Media and Celiac. Has Facebook Become Your Doctor?

Most of us use social media in one way or another to connect with family, friends, and other communities that enrich our lives. But sometimes social media groups present information about medical conditions that is just wrong. It's frightening that some people might take online posts as fact instead of talking to their doctor or other health care professional.  To help us talk about these issues we have a wonderful group here in the studio…Our Children's National Community Education Specialist Joyana McMahon….and one of our amazing board members Maureen Basye, who is a mom to a child with celiac disease and the founder of Celiac Cruise. 

Thank you to the Walter and Jean Boek Global Autoimmune Institute for their ongoing support to make this podcast possible.
