If a restaurant posts their menu items are gluten free, there is a Federal Rule that they must be gluten free (meaning safe for the consumer to eat). Have you come across menus that state items are gluten free but not safe for those with Celiac? Please share your experiences at [email protected]

On today's Celiac Project Podcast:

Mike and Cam sit down with Jordan Clark, group leader of the GIG of Greater Oakland support group. Jordan shares his frustrating story of getting diagnosed with celiac disease while finishing college, and how his search for others trying to understand how to live a safe gluten free life led him to becoming an unlikely support group leader.

They talk about the benefits to being part of this type of community, and Jordan shares his thoughts on the first steps to take if you are interested in starting a support group in your own area.

On today's Celiac Project Podcast:

Mike and Cam are happy to welcome Kyle Dine, allergy educator and founder of Equal Eats. Kyle's childhood was spent navigating his life with a number of life threatening food allergies, leading him to feel isolated in his early years. Kyle set out to make the world more accessible for everyone to eat safely no matter if they have allergies or celiac disease. His vision coupled with his passion to support the allergen and celiac community is truly inspiring!

More about Equal Eats:

Dining out can feel like a game of telephone. Did the waitstaff understand what we said about our food and did they relay it to the kitchen staff correctly? Not to mention traveling where there is a language barrier!

To the rescue: Equal Eats Dining Cards! These credit card-sized cards give dining establishments the exact information they need to keep us safe. They come in 50 languages and over 500 food allergies and celiac. You can have custom cards made too.

Actor, director and author Stanley Tucci reveals in his latest book, Taste, that he has a gluten intolerance. He also has a self-declared rant in his book about gluten free pasta and how it could never be as good at pasta made with wheat.

I completely disagree! Growing up in an Italian - American home, we ate pasta a lot! Their is some excellent gluten free pasta on the market. So good that even my non-gluten free family members ask for them when they visit!

My favorite brands are: Garofalo, La Veneziane, Jovial, Taste Republic and Charlie's Table. How about you?

Brain Fog Study

Investigators are conducting a research study to examine the effects of “brain fog” following gluten exposure in celiac disease. Brain fog is not well understood, and this study will help us learn more about its causes.

You may qualify for the study if:

You are age 21 or older.

You have been diagnosed with celiac disease for at least 1 year.

You have maintained a strict gluten-free diet for at least 1 year.

You show symptoms of “brain fog” with gluten exposure. This means your thinking is not sharp or you may have problems remembering things or focusing.

You will be asked to:

Participate for 3 months. There will be 4 study visits at the University of Chicago clinic in Hyde Park.

Give multiple blood, urine, and stool samples.

Undergo two MRI scans of your brain and complete two evaluations of your memory, attention span, and ability to process information.

Participants will be compensated up to $250.

For more information or to enroll in this study, please contact Adam Geibel at [email protected]

New GF Products from Trader Joes:

GF Pepperoni Pizza - pepperoni, pepper and olive pizza covered in part-skim mozzarella cheese and seated on a cauliflower crust.

GF Cheese Ravioli - gluten-free ravioli dough made with eggs, rice, corn, and cauliflower, and they're filled with five different cheeses. Insider tip: cook the ravioli in gently boiling water and remove from heat when the pasta floats to the top. Remove from the water with a slotted spoon to drain.

Cacio y Pepe Cheese Puffs - puffed organic corn meal and organic brown rice flour, coated these delicately crispy Puffs with a seasoning blend that includes dried, organic Cheddar and Romano cheeses and organic black pepper. 

Dark Chocolate Half-Coated Rice Cakes Thins - Organic dark chocolate covers half of a rice cake. The ratio is slightly more rice cracker than dark chocolate- if you like dark chocolate, get these! The rice cracker itself is denser than a normal rice cracker and doesn’t fall apart.
