Welcome to The Savvy Celiac. Where we help smart people become savvy gluten free consumers.

Every day news is made regarding celiac disease and its only treatment: a gluten free diet. Whether it is information about gluten free foods, recipes, scientific research, school tips, eating out, or the basics about the disease symptoms that come with having celiac, we talk about and report on it here using reliable sources and key experts to create great content.

If you have celiac disease, a non-celiac gluten sensitivity or are eating gluten free for other reasons, our one goal is to empower you with information to live a healthy gluten free life.

First the internet goes all abuzz over new research connecting type 1 diabetes and celiac disease. Now I’m following up with one parent who quickly learned how to handle both diseases when her son had a double diagnosis. How does this research sit with people directly impacted by the diseases?

We finally hear what professionals say about accommodating gluten-free meals at big events. This great information could apply to work, wedding receptions, fundraisers. Plus good hints to make your next event a successful gluten-free adventure.
