About Me

An RN for 14 years, I have been following a strict gluten-free diet for six years of improving health! Now I help others as a Celiac Disease/Gluten Intolerance Educator. I work one on one with people on meal planning, shopping, cooking and dining out gluten-free. I will also work with children who have behavioral issues related to gluten or other food sensitivities. 

  1. Celiac.com 04/05/2019 (Originally published on 10/19/2009) - Gluten intolerance caused by celiac disease, or non-celiac gluten sensitivity, may affect virtually any part of the body. A culprit in multiple health disorders, gluten intolerance...
  2. I am now collecting information, research, articles, professional papers, and especially, patient stories, for a new project. Many people with food sensitivities and with celiac disease suffer from headaches, or have family members who do. I would love to hear from anyone with an interesting headache "case history" they're be willing to share confidentially...
  3. Celiac.com 04/01/2011 - On March 10th, Chef Damian Cardone boasted on Facebook that he delights in feeding diners who specifically requested gluten-free meals a variety of gluten-filled dishes instead. He states on his Facebook page that...
  4. Celiac.com 02/21/2011 - After reading this new book by celiac nurse specialist Shelly Stuart, RN, what shines through above all is her true understanding of the complex nature of gluten-related illnesses, and her heartfelt compassion for...
  5. Celiac.com 02/09/2011 - A new group focused on supporting children with celiac disease and non-celiac gluten intolerance will hold its first meeting this month, on February 19th, in Portland, Oregon. G.I.F.T.S. - Gluten Intolerant Families...
  6. For the past two years I've been busy writing something called, "The Better Bladder Book - A Holistic Approach to Healing Interstitial Cystitis & Chronic Pelvic Pain". IT is now OUT, AVAILABLE, and thankfully, getting GREAT Reviews! This makes me very happy, not because I'll make a bundle (I won't), but because people who need help can now find it. IC is...
  7. Hi Johnny, I know this is an old post and don't know if you're active on the forum, but I wanted to ask you whether your prostate problems have cleared up on the gluten-free diet/diagnosis with celiac disease. The reason is that I'm writing a book on urinary symptoms and possible relation to gluten intolerance, and looking for "success stories" of men...
  8. I'm writing a book about the bladder, and one of the points I came across in my research, perhaps not too surprisingly, is a link between gluten intolerance and/or celiac disease and chronic prostatitis in men. I've also run across a comment posted regarding this link on the gluten-free forum on this site, but I really want to learn more about this link...
  9. I made this yesterday for my son’s graduation party. I created it off the top of my head, and everyone loved it. I also made a regular crisp with wheat flour, but everyone seemed to prefer this one. You can use any combination of f...
  10. Did anyone catch the early morning news on NPR yesterday? I turned it on in the middle of a very good piece on a family with celiac disease. The focus was on the recent diagnosis of a 15-year old boy. He was active in sports and had intermittent symptoms, until one day, they became constant and fairly severe. He was diagnosed fairly quickly, and responded...
  11. I've been very interested in reading the responses to the previous blog discussing whether there could be a link between celiac disease or gluten intolerance and Parkinson's disease. There still is not any clinical information linking these two disorders. Many people do feel there is some connection, or in some cases, gluten-sensitivity driven neurological...
  12. Before I went gluten-free, cous-cous salad was one of my all-time favorites, and I made it often. Cous-Cous is not a grain itself, but a tiny grain-like semolina pasta common in the Middle-Eastern/North African countries, and of course...
  13. This is a fun, lively gluten-free recipe suitable for family or friends, or even entertaining a crowd. It's especially nice to make in the early to mid summer when fresh green beans are in season. Put Thai jasmine rice or Basmati rice...
  14. I caught a spot on Oprah today with the actor Michael J. Fox discussing his battle with the neurological symptoms of Parkinson's Disease. He's always been an engaging persona, and I enjoyed the segment. As a nurse, I've always had a strong interest in neurological disorders, and have done a lot of reading on the links between Celiac disease and neurological...
