This is a tough one. A young woman writes to me, explaining that she is stuck at home for financial reasons, but her family doesn't take her celiac disease seriously and has pretty much written her out of the picture. There is a lot to unpack here. And as always, I do my best and explain what it is truly like to live with celiac disease (hint...it …

Boy did I eat like crap when I was young. My mom changed things up (to my horror) and I cleaned up my diet. Yet when I was diagnosed with celiac disease, for some reason I just had to have gluten-free cookies, cakes, brownies, pizza, etc. I paid the price.

But what about if you work at an office? How do you explain to them that there are going to be times where celiac just kicks your butt and you won't be at your full capa…

The biggest lie in the world of celiac disease is that you'll feel better immediately once you begin your gluten-free diet. It sure as hell didn't happen to me and my guess is you also did not have those results. And it did not happen to this 19 year old woman, whose parents are frustrated.
