    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:

    Today, Celiac.com remains his primary focus. To ensure unbiased information, the site does not sell products and is 100% advertiser supported.

    Celiac.com 12/15/2014 - Non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS), aka `wheat sensitivity’ (NCWS), is currently included in the spectrum of gluten-related disorders. 
    Many people with celiac disease suffer from low bone mass density, but there has been no good data on low bone mass density in people with NCWS.
    A team of researchers recently set out to determine rates of low bone mass density in NCWS patients and to search for correlations with other clinical characteristics. The researchers included Antonio Carroccio, Maurizio Soresi, Alberto D'Alcamo, Carmelo Sciumè, Giuseppe Iacono, Girolamo Geraci, Ignazio Brusca, Aurelio Seidita, Floriana Adragna, Miriam Carta and Pasquale Mansueto.
    For their prospective observation study, the team assessed 75 NCWS patients (63 women; median age...

      My only proof

      We feel your pain. It took me 20+ years of regularly going to doctors desperate for answers only to be told there was nothing wrong with me … when I was 20 pounds underweight, suffering from severe nutritional deficiencies, and in a great deal of pain. I had to figure it out for myself. If you're in the U.S., not having an official diagnosis does m...

      Gluten related ??

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much...

      KAN-101 Treatment for Coeliac Disease

      This treatment looks promising. Its aim is to provoke immune tolerance of gluten, possibly curing the disease. It passed the phase 2 trial with flying colours, and I came across a post on Reddit by one of the study volunteers. Apparently, the results were good enough that the company is applying for fast track approval. Anokion Announces Positive Symptom...
