Celiac Straight Talk

Beyond Celiac is taking our entire 2020 Step Beyond Celiac 5K series to the virtual streets with a multi-city tour for individuals and teams across the country to support celiac disease research efforts. Five event dates are planned between August and October! Join us for one or many with our 3 and 5 city tour options.

The Step Beyond Celiac 5K is a family-friendly event and fundraiser for Beyond Celiac. We encourage all participants to raise funds by running or walking 3.1 miles either in the event cities or right where you are in support of research efforts for treatments and a cure.

Lace-up your running shoes, train, raise money, and run (or walk) a 5K (3.1 miles) to improve the quality of life for children and adults affected by celiac disease.

All participants receive a Step Beyond Celiac 5K shirt if they register before the t-shirt deadline.

On November 15, Beyond Celiac held its 2nd research summit. The 2019 Summit built on the results of our innovative 2015 summit, which was widely hailed as highly impactful and led to new scientific collaborations and sharpening of the focus of celiac disease physician scientists.

Our 2019 summit took place against the backdrop of at least 12 clinical trials for celiac disease treatments. Our aim was to comprehensively address elements that must be in place to get a drug to market, including the remaining barriers in this decades-long journey to help patients with celiac disease.

Listen as the patient panel share their stories about what its like living with celiac disease.

Sharing your story will give researchers an up-to-date understanding of what life is truly like with celiac disease. It is only with information from people with celiac disease that we accelerate research, including that of the drugs in the development pipeline, in order to find a treatment for celiac disease.

Your story is the missing piece of the celiac disease puzzle. Joining Go Beyond Celiac will help break down the walls between our community and scientists so we can work hand-in-hand towards a better life with celiac disease.

In this podcast, the Beyond Celiac book club (Claire, Amy, Maria and Bill) discussed In Memory of Bread by Paul Graham. A funny, poignant memoir of one man's struggle to come to terms with his celiac disease diagnosis, forcing him to reexamine his relationship with food. This podcast was taken from the live zoom discussion held on the Beyond Celiac facebook page. The video can be found here.
