About Me
Scott Adams was diagnosed with celiac disease in 1994. Faced with a critical lack of resources, he dedicated himself to becoming an expert on the condition to achieve his own recovery.
In 1995, he founded Celiac.com with a clear mission: to ensure no one would have to navigate celiac disease alone. The site has since grown into one of the oldest and most trusted patient-focused resources for celiac disease and the gluten-free lifestyle.
His work to advance awareness and support includes:
- Founding Celiac.com in 1995.
- Founding in 2002, and publishing the Journal of Gluten Sensitivity.
- Co-authoring with Dr. Ron Hoggan the book Cereal Killers.
- Founding The Gluten-Free Mall in 1998, which he later sold in 2014.
Today, Celiac.com remains his primary focus. To ensure unbiased information, the site does not sell products and is 100% advertiser supported.

There may still be commercial ones available for purchase, but you can make your own using AI. Just go to google, bing, chatgpt, etc., and ask it for a gluten-free restaurant card in the language you want, and ask for the English translation as well. For example I just went to Google and entered: "Provide a Spanish gluten-free restaurant card for a celiac...

Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed... -

I am so sorry you're going through this bad experience--it's difficult when your own lived reality of cause and effect is dismissed by the very professionals meant to help you. You are absolutely right—your violent physical reactions are not "what you think," but undeniable data points, and it's a form of medical gaslighting to be told otherwise, especially w... -

Welcome @Martha Mitchell, I too would like to know more about your prior lenses, and especially about the potential of gluten in lenses. In theory this should not harm most celiacs, as the autoimmune reaction normally begins in the gut, however, in those who are super sensitive or have dermatitis herpetiformis it may be a potential issue. -

Scott Adams replied to JoJo0611's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
It's most likely going to be a celiac disease diagnosis based on your blood test results, but wait for your doctor to give you a green light for going gluten-free, as they may want to do additional testing. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.): -

In general if it is labelled gluten-free then it should be ok for most celiacs, however, those who are super sensitive (which is most who have dermatitis herpetiformis) may want to eat only certified gluten-free items, which are supposed to test down to 10ppm (but don't always!).
