“Living with celiac disease doesn’t necessarily define me, but it absolutely helps shape who I am.” Read Holly’s story and more #VoicesofCeliac: https://hubs.li/Q02ZqZJp0 #celiac #celiacdisease #autoimmune #autoimmunedisease #gluten #glutenfree #glutenfreeliving #chronicillness #celiacresearch #celiacawareness

Many people find cross-contact to be one of the most difficult parts of the gluten-free diet to manage. Cross-contact is when a gluten-free food or food product is exposed to a gluten-containing ingredient or food – making it unsafe for people with celiac disease to eat. Even just a crumb of gluten is enough to start the autoimmune response in people with celiac disease, even if symptoms are not present. It’s a common misconception that heat kills gluten, but that’s not true! The temperature required to “kill” gluten would char your food, rendering it inedible! How do you prevent cross-contact?

November is Diabetes Awareness Month! ?? Diabetes is a disease that affects how your body uses blood sugar, called glucose. Glucose is the main source of energy for the brain and for the cells that make up muscle and tissue of the body. Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune condition that is usually diagnosed in children, teenagers and young adults. In this form of diabetes, the body does not make insulin, which is the hormone needed to get glucose from the bloodstream into cells. Type 1 diabetes and celiac disease are both immune-mediated conditions and share a similar genetic profile, resulting in a significant amount of overlap in patients. Around 3–8% of people with T1D will have biopsy-confirmed celiac disease, so people with this condition would benefit from regular celiac disease screening, as untreated celiac disease may contribute to irregular blood glucose levels. #diabetes #diabetesawareness celiac #celiacdisease #autoimmune #autoimmunedisease #gluten #glutenfree #glutenfreeliving #chronicillness #celiacresearch #celiacawareness #research #beyondceliac

With Thanksgiving and the holiday season approaching, we wanted to share some of our best tips for attending gatherings as someone with celiac disease. ?? While some alcohol, like beer, is not gluten-free, there is plenty of gluten-free alcohol to celebrate with! Wine, champagne, and pure distilled liquors are gluten-free, as well as most hard ciders and seltzers. ?? It’s always good to label and/or color-code your gluten-free food! ?? Make sure to cover gluten-free food in the oven to minimize cross-contact.

This cornbread with honey and thyme is a tasty gluten-free side for Thanksgiving or any warm, hearty meal during the holiday season! ?? We recommend pairing it with chili, barbecue, or fried chicken, but it could even be a delicious dessert if served with the honey butter recipe included on the same page.
