Gluten Free Food and Allergy Show

The Gluten Free Food and Allergy Shows are Australia's premier events focusing on allergies, foods, lifestyle and information. The events showcase the best products and services available both locally and internationally.

Australia has become overwhelmed with an allergy 'epidemic'. Around 40% (8 million) Australians live with allergic conditions such as food allergies, eczema, hay fever, asthma, insect or drug allergies. This is in addition to the prevalence of coeliac disease and food intolerances in Australia.

The show also has the support of terrific associations such as Coeliac Society, Dietitians Association of Australia, Eczema Association of Australasia and Food Standards Australia.

The event will attract thousands of people over a two day period. During the event consumers will be able to gain valuable information, attend free seminars with expert speakers, try and buy Gluten Free and Allergy Friendly products. For many Australians affected by allergies, asthma and food intolerances, finding the right source of information to improve their quality of life is not easy. This event will bring together up to 100 exhibitors showcasing everything from Gluten-Free Cakes, Allergy Remedies to Allergy Friendly Products and face to face contact with various Allergy associations.

Awesome turnout!

I hope someday, something like this will happen in the US. There are a few shows, but I don't anything that compares to this. Plus, this was in 2007, that market is HUGE now, compared to then.

I have coeliacs and it was undiagnosed for years. Didnt get me till I was about 35.

Its an inherited thing.

first symptom extreme tiredness, I was walking around like a zombie for days on end and all I wanted to do was sleep which I put down to 12 hour days at work and the fact I was getting old at 35

2nd is puking and diarhoeea.

Its not very pleasant.

celiac is not an allergy its an auto immune disease where the body attacks itself trying to attack the gliadin protein in the gluten of wheat rye oats and barley. There is no histamine involved there is no allergy with celiac disease.
