Ep 344 November 2025 Roundup

It's the beginning of November 2025 and my opportunity to discuss news and information that has come out in the past month with Ellen Bayens of theceliacscene.com. Ellen keeps us up to date on what's happening regarding celiac disease and gluten free. First, let me urge you to sign the petition Celiac Canada is putting forth to the federal government regarding the cost of gluten free food and how they can assist the celiac population. This is a re-issue of the petition from last year, as unfortunately it died when an election was called. Last time we received more than 26,000 signatures. Let's try for 30,000 this time. Please click the link and send it on to anyone else who you think is interested on our behalf. You can find out more and sign the petition at – https://www.celiac.ca/petition-high-cost-of-gluten-free-food/ Ellen and I spoke at length about some of the information that came from the recent International Celiac Conference in Finland. Melissa Secord from the CCA was part of a Canadian "team" attending who did a great job presenting and interacting with experts from all over the world. We touched on research regarding a promising advancement in testing for celiac disease by a simple blood test. We also speak about research to try and "turn-off" the celiac switch and learn more about that. We learn why some people who think they might be celiac, might instead need to be on a temporary FODMAP diet to reset their digestive system with the help of a dietician.
