Food Bullying and Celiac Disease

Food bullying. It can range from teasing others at school or online in social media groups, to kids throwing bread at children with celiac disease. In many cases it’s parents that are doing the bullying...But how do you address this problem? As the issue has come up numerous times in the past few weeks in our Celiac Clinic at Children's National Hospital, we wanted to address it on the podcast. Joining Vanessa in the studio are two of the CNMC community education specialists, Kate Raber and Joyana McMahon.
