Could gluten from Europe actually be the secret to enjoying bread again for those with celiac disease? This pervasive and potentially harmful myth is just one of the 5 lies I debunk in the latest episode.
As we delve into the complexities of celiac disease, we unravel the confusion between this serious autoimmune disorder and a gluten allergy. Today's episode can prove clarity and understanding to empower those living with celiac disease.

This episode isn't just about busting myths; it's a deep dive into the reality of living with celiac disease and navigating the challenges it presents. Despite the allure of so-called wonder products promising a cure, we explore why skepticism is essential and why maintaining a gluten-containing diet prior to testing is crucial for accurate diagnosis. I also share why going gluten-free isn't an overnight solution.

Join me as I emphasize the importance of patience and the sometimes complex journey towards healing and managing celiac disease.
