    Scott Adams

    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.

    What is the Treatment for Celiac Disease?
    Celiac.com 06/26/2020 - The only treatment for celiac disease is a gluten-free diet. 
    No Cure for Celiac Disease
    No prescription drug or home remedy can cure celiac disease. There is no operation or medical procedure that can cure celiac disease.
    Gluten-Free Diet Key to Celiac Wellness
    However, people with celiac disease can live happy, healthy, normal lives by eliminating wheat rye and/or barley, and following a dedicated gluten-free diet.
    Avoid Unsafe Non-Gluten-Free Foods
    This means avoiding all products derived from wheat, rye, barley, oats, and a few other lesser-known grains. These foods and ingredients are unsafe and not-gluten-free. Here's our Unsafe Gluten-Free Food List (Unsafe Ingredients).

    How Close Are New Celiac Disease Treatments?
    Celiac.com 04/10/2015 - Of course, a strict gluten free diet is still the only safe and effective treatment for celiac disease. However, new drugs in development, some of which are currently being tested on humans, might allow people with celiac disease to safely eat gluten again, at least in small amounts.
    To be fair, even if all goes smoothly, it will be a few years at least before we see such treatments on the market. Moreover, even though many early results have been encouraging, none have yet entered safety trials, the final step before Food and Drug Administration approval and commercial availability.
    Drugs currently under trial include an enzyme that splits the protein in wheat that triggers adverse reactions, into smaller harmless products, and another which promises...

    What Can Intestinal Anti-tissue Transglutaminase2 Autoantibodies Tell Us About Celiac Disease Autoimmunity?
    Celiac.com 07/13/2020 - Celiac disease is a systemic disease that damages the small intestine and which, left untreated, can lead to numerous related health problems. The only treatment for celiac disease remains a gluten-free diet.
    Celiac disease is classified as an autoimmune disease in part because of the presence of anti-tissue transglutaminase 2 (anti-TG2) antibodies in the serum, as well as the presence of other autoimmune features. Anti-TG2 autoantibodies are produced in the intestines, and they show up there even before they begin to circulate in the blood.
    Researchers Mariantonia Maglio and Riccardo Troncone of the Department of Medical Translational Sciences and European Laboratory for the Investigation of Food-Induced Diseases at the University Federico II in Naples,...

    Anti-tissue Transglutaminase Antibodies May Be Associated with Cow's Milk Protein in Addition to Gluten Intake
    Celiac.com 02/08/2021 - Anti-tissue transglutaminase antibodies (tTG) are a strong indicator of celiac disease, but positive anti-tTG antibodies have also been reported in some non-celiac patients. A team of researchers recently set out to examine positive anti-tTG antibodies that are not related to gluten intake.
    The research team included Mónica Garcia-Peris, Ester Donat Aliaga, María Roca Llorens, Etna Masip Simó, Begoña Polo Miquel, and Carmen Ribes Koninck.
    They are variously affiliated with the Pediatric Service, Lluís Alcanyís Hospital, Xàtiva (Valencia), Spain; the Pediatric Gastroenterology Unit, Hospital Universitari i Politécnic La Fe, Valencia, Spain; and the Celiac Disease and Digestive Immunopathology Unit, Instituto de Investigación Sanitaria La Fe in Valenc...
