=================================
"I got involved with launching Gluten Free and Fabulous Products because of my daughter Brittany who is mildly Autistic and had severe gastrointestinal problems," Shari says. "She was also lethargic and had trouble focusing in school. Now that she is gluten free all these issues have gone away. This also gave me an opportunity to work with my father (Larry Schneider) and my best friend (Karen Davidson). We all have a passion and the same goals in mind. If we could produce great tasting food that the whole family can enjoy and help people along the way what could be more satisfying than that."
Shari knows first-hand that children with autism can benefit from a gluten-free diet. She has developed many gluten-free recipes in her own kitchen to help her daughter Brittany, now a champion equestrian. Gluten Free diets also benefit the entire family, especially those with wheat intolerance, autism and for women who are tying to loose weight.
Shari serves on the Board for Cure Autism/Autism Speaks Acts of Love in Los Angeles. Shari is speaking, cooking and appearing at the University of Chicago Celiac Disease Center Annual Benefit on Wednesday, April, 16.
