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.

Celiac.com 01/31/2005 - SEOs (Search Engine Optimizers) are having a contest to see who will rank #1 in Google for the nonsense phrase "V7ndotcom elursrebmem" on May 15th, 2006 with a first prize of $7,000 and a 30 GByte iPod. With that much money at stake, SEOs world-wide are using all of their bags of tricks and strategies (including some nefarious black hat techniques) to "convince" Google that their web site should rank #1. But one underdog web site is giving these seasoned professionals one heck of a run for the money and trying to win that prize money for a good cause. Open Original Shared Link will donate all contest winnings directly to charity -- specifically, the University of Maryland Center for Celiac Research (CFCR). And with a groundswell of interest, it just might...

Yes, it is the holiday season, and back online for 2010 are the Controllable Christmas Lights for Celiac Disease: Open Original Shared Link
Once again, three live webcams and X10 technology allows web surfers to not only view the action, but also *control* 20,000+ lights. New this year is the Santa Plane, Santa Helicopter, and even Santa Skiing down my roof ... which can all be inflated/deflated in addition to the giant 12' Santa, 15' Santa Balloon, Elmo, Frosty Family, SpongeBob SquarePants, and Homer Simpson - D'OH!
The website is totally free (and totally fun) and is one of my zany ways of raising awareness & soliciting donations for Celiac Disease - Open Original Shared Link - my two sons have this condition, so it's personal for me. If folks are so inclined, you can make ...

Celiac.com 09/16/2013 - Until recently, researchers thought celiac disease was mainly a problem in Northern Europe and Australasia, and uncommon in North America and the Middle East. However, with better data, researchers now regard celiac disease to be equally common in all these places.
Celiac disease is still generally seen as rare in Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa, but a team of researchers wanted to get a better idea of geographical differences and time trends in the frequency of celiac disease.
The research team included J. Y. Kang, A. H. Y. Kang, A. Green, K. A. Gwee, and K.Y. Ho. They are affiliated with the Department of Gastroenterology, St George's Hospital, London, UK, the Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine at the National University of Singapore, and with the Department of...

- knitty kitty replied to Scatterbrain's topic in Sports and Fitness9Feel like I’m starting over
Check your multivitamin to see if it contains Thiamine Mononitrate, which is a "shelf-stable" form of thiamine that doesn't break down with exposure to light, heat, and time sitting on a shelf waiting to be sold. Our bodies have difficulty absorbing and utilizing it. Only 30% is absorbed and less can be utilized. There's some question as to how well multivitamins... -
- Scatterbrain replied to Scatterbrain's topic in Sports and Fitness9Feel like I’m starting over
I am taking a multivitamin which is pretty bolstered with B’s. Additional Calcium, D3, Magnesium, Vit C, and Ubiquinol. Started Creapure creatine monohydrate in June for athletic recovery and brain fog. I have been working with a Nutritionist along side my Dr. since February. My TTG IGA levels in January were 52.8 and my DGP IGA was >250 (I don’t ... -

Feel like I’m starting over
@Scatterbrain, What supplements are you taking? I agree that the problem may be nutritional deficiencies. It's worth talking to a dietician or nutritionist about. Did you get a Marsh score at your diagnosis? Was your tTg IgA level very high? These can indicate more intestinal damage and poorer absorption of nutrients. Are you eating... -

Has anyone had terrible TMJ/ Jaw Pain from undiagnosed Celiac?
Vitamin and mineral deficiencies can make TMJ worse. Vitamins like B12 , Thiamine B1, and Pyridoxine B6 help relieve pain. Half of the patients in one study were deficient in these three vitamins in one study below. Malabsorption of vitamins and minerals is common in celiac disease. It's important to eat healthy nutrient dense diets like the Autoimmune... -

Yes. I have had the tmj condition for 40 years. My only help was strictly following celiac and also eliminating soy. Numerous dental visits and several professionally made bite plates did very little to help with symptoms
