Celiac.com creator Scott Adams now is starting a new journal for we celiacs who like to get our fix on the latest information. I talked with him about why he’s doing it, the information you’ll find and whether it’s worth the subscription.
Celiac disease is a challenge – no doubt about it. But so many people around the world have it worse than we do. Sure the gluten-free diet goes against everything that is Americana food: buns, stuffing, bread, pie, cake, donuts, etc… This post explores why we have reason to stop and be thankful.
Some of the cookbooks I bought when my daughter was first diagnosed with celiac were either not very educational, had a zillion ingredients that I didn’t have any other use for, or the food just tasted downright gross.

This winter, gluten-free awareness in the restaurant community was feeling downright progressive! So many businesses and restaurants opened their eyes and took chances on gluten-free products.

A new survey by The Savvy Celiac finds most people don’t like the proposed 20 ppm gluten standard for foods labeled gluten free. They ask the question, Shouldn’t “free” mean zero? But it may not be that simple.
Welcome to one of the most heated topics on thesavvyceliac.com and in the celiac community in general. If you’re new to celiac disease and the gluten-free diet now is the time to get educated about a proposal that is likely to become a US standard and may affect the way you shop for gluten-free food. If you’re a veteran, you may enjoy a peek into the passion of your fellow celiacs.
