About Me

Scott Adams was diagnosed with celiac disease in 1994, and, due to the nearly total lack of information available at that time, was forced to become an expert on the disease in order to recover. In 1995 he launched the site that later became Celiac.com to help as many people as possible with celiac disease get diagnosed so they can begin to live happy, healthy gluten-free lives.  He is co-author of the book Cereal Killers, and founder and publisher of the (formerly paper) newsletter Journal of Gluten Sensitivity. In 1998 he founded The Gluten-Free Mall which he sold in 2014. Celiac.com does not sell any products, and is 100% advertiser supported.

  1. Based on what you've described, it is absolutely crucial that you pursue further medical exams for Celiac Disease and related conditions with a gastroenterologist. Your symptoms—especially the worsening fatigue, loss of muscle mass, neurological symptoms like migraines, and palpitations, coupled with being underweight—are significant red flags that extend bey...
  2. I would only add that cross contamination with wheat may still be a possibility, so it's still best to seek out buckwheat that is labeled "gluten-free."
  3. Celiac.com 10/07/2025 - For many people, bread, pasta, pastries, and pizza are more than just food—they feel like comfort, tradition, and daily staples. Yet, for individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, eating these foods c...
  4. Doan’s Bakery of Woodland Hills, CA is recalling White Chocolate Coconut and Carrot Bundt Cakes because they may contain undeclared wheat and milk. People who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to wheat and/or milk run the risk of experiencing a serious or life-threatening reaction if they consume these products. The recalled bundt cakes were sold b...
  5. It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks...
  6. Celiac.com 10/04/2025 - Breakfast pizzas are a modern twist on the age-old tradition of using flatbreads as a vehicle for hearty morning meals. While pizza itself originated in Italy, many cultures have long experimented with bread-like...
  7. Yes, and cross pollination would spread these modified genetics to non-GMO crops--putting the genie back in the bottle if something negative happens would be difficult.
  8. Enzymes can break down gliadin, just not well enough yet to allow you to eat wheat pizza (but perhaps may work with trace amounts of cross contamination)...see comments below this article too: They are working on GMO wheat that would be safe for celiac disease...but it would be GMO (currently there are no commercially used GMO wheat varieties):
  9. Celiac.com 10/03/2025 - For anyone with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, the first weeks of going gluten-free often feel overwhelming. One of the biggest frustrations comes in the kitchen: how to bake bread, muffins, cakes, or cookies...
  10. It also may be time to switch doctors if they don't want to do any follow up after you contact them about this.
  11. Lots of different cancer types = lots of different symptoms: "Celiac patients were found to have higher risks of cancer in the pancreas, esophagus, colon, liver, and especially the small intestine."
  12. Celiac.com 10/01/2025 - For people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, avoiding gluten is the foundation of treatment. However, many discover that even when they completely remove gluten from their diet, they still experience ongoing...
  13. Your post demonstrates the profound frustration and isolation that so many in the Celiac community feel, and I want to thank you for channeling that experience into advocacy. The medical gaslighting you endured for decades is an unacceptable and, sadly, a common story, and the fact that you now have to "school" your own GI specialist speaks volumes about...
  14. I had no idea there is a "Louisville" in Colorado!😉 I thought it was a typo because I always think of the Kentucky city--but good luck!
  15. Navigating medication safety with Celiac disease can be incredibly stressful, especially when dealing with asthma and severe allergies on top of it. While I don't have personal experience with the HealthA2Z brand of cetirizine, your caution is absolutely warranted. The inactive ingredients in pills, known as excipients, are often where gluten can be hidden...
