There is a new student support group at Walkertons Sacred Heart High School.
The No Wheat is Sweet group provides support for celiac and wheat sensitive students.
Student Trustee Bridget King says its not easy being a teenager on such a restricted diet.
She says the students gather to share gluten free recipes and snacks as well as discuss which products on the market work best for them.
Along with this networking opportunity, King says the support group also provides emotional support for the challenges these students face on a daily basis.
With wheat sensitivities becoming more common, King says its great that the students have this resource at hand.
The No Wheat is Sweet support group is a student council initiative.
The group meets every other week.
