Gluten and the Brain
Tuesday, February 8 at 7pm in the Community Room at the Town Center 770
Tamalpais Dr. Suite 201 Corte Madera 94925
Julie Griffith, MD, will speak on How Gluten Can Affect the Brain: From Seizures
and Headaches to Anxiety and Inattention at GIG of Marin’s meeting on Tuesday,
February 8 at 7 pm.
Dr. Griffith is a neurologist specializing in learning and behavior disorders,
gut/brain/immune dysfunction, and neuropsychiatry. In her San Rafael practice,
the Neurology Health Center, she treats both children and adults.
Though celiac disease and gluten sensitivity are most commonly associated with
gastro-intestinal symptoms, for some individuals, brain dysfunction can be the
primary, or even the only, manifestation of intolerance to gluten.
An internationally recognized expert in neurobiology, Dr. Griffith completed a
pediatric residency at UCSF, a neurology residency at Harvard and a behavioral
neurology fellowship at Harvard Children’s Hospital.
Please come to this important meeting with Dr. Griffith and bring your friends.
