    April 2026 Roundup with Ellen

    It's the beginning of April and that means I have the opportunity to speak with Ellen Bayens of theceliacscene.com to discuss the articles she has brought to our attention over the past month. Ellen and I discuss a recent study that looks at how patients with celiac disease interact with their health care professionals. This is, of course dependent on the particular health care professional, but the study found that often celiac patients felt that their doctor was treating them with less respect as if they weren't very smart. Ellen reminded us of the Conquer Study that you can still fill out. The study is looking at the experience of celiac adults as well as parents of celiac children. You can fill out the study at – https://redcap.ualberta.ca/surveys/?s=JXWC8KDWALP3X9HY There has been a food recall for spice blends that Ellen brought to our attention. As well she told us about B Free products apparently being trialed in some Costco stores. The Fuller Bar, which was developed to be suitable for diabetics and is gluten free is available in some parts of BC and can be ordered online.

    Selena and Ellen Talk Restaurants and Travel

    This podcast afforded me the distinct pleasure of having a conversation with both Registered Dietitian Selena De Vries and Ellen Bayens of theceliacscene.com. Selena often shares her insights into ordering and eating at fast food restaurants – something most of us miss, and Ellen has extensive experience with eating safely at a variety of restaurants. Our  conversation can help identify what the real concerns are, and how to both prepare prior to arriving at the restaurant as well as the language to help you make safe choices. We all get concerned about travelling, especially internationally, and both Selena and Ellen have some great advice to make this experience safer and more rewarding. All three of us acknowledge the value of community, both being a part of a larger gluten free community and, when you can, contributing to that community for the benefit of all.

    March 2026 Roundup with Ellen

    It's the beginning of March 2026 and my opportunity again to chat with Ellen Bayens of theceliacscene.com about studies and topics she has brought to our attention over the past month. Ellen and I tackle the tricky diagnosis of Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NSGS). I say tricky, because currently science is still struggling to find a way to make a diagnosis of celiac symptoms when a patient doesn't have the genetic predisposition for celiac disease. This question has been looking for an answer for a long time, and we may now be close. The good thing about NCGS is that Celiac Canada has welcomed those patients who suffer from eating gluten but may not fit the celiac diagnosis. We all share the same struggle. Ellen shares her thoughts on my recent podcast with Nicole Byrom RD about talking with children about a diagnosis of celiac disease. Nicole and I looked at this question from different scenarios and Ellen admitted that at the time when she was explaining her diagnosis to her children years ago, she missed some of the things that kids might read into the diagnosis. Ellen shares a (trial) find of Promise Gluten Free Bread at Costco and updates us on the Chocolate Covered Cheesecake from M & M Foodmarket.

    Talking to Kids about Celiac Disease with Nicole Byrom RD

    On this podcast I speak with Registered Dietician Nicole Byrom. Both Nicole and I have daughters with Celiac Disease. We break down our conversation into three portions – talking about a parent having celiac disease, talking about a diagnosis for the child, and talking about the diagnosis of a sibling. We also recognize that children require different approaches depending on their ages. We've broken down our discussions looking at different age groups – ages 5-10, ages 10-13 and ages 14+.

    February 2026 Roundup

    It's the beginning of February 2026 which means I can take the opportunity to speak again with Ellen Bayens of theceliacscene.com about news and information she has brought to our attention over the past month. Ellen and I spoke about a new app that may solve your problems with record-keeping for your gluten free food deduction on your taxes. We try and take some of they mysteries out of the ROME IV Criteria and its relationship with DGBI's. Below is the link to fill out the University of Alberta Survey.

    Gluten Free Food Hacks with Cindi

    On this podcast I speak with Cindi Little the Everyday Gluten Free Gourmet. I wanted to chat with Cindi to explore some of the ways gluten free convenience foods and mixes which have relatively recently exploded onto the market can be used in creative ways to be more satisfying and help us expand our daily menu selections. Cindi and I speak about gluten free breaded chicken pieces that are now widely available as well as the many gluten free sauce and gravy mixes we find in our grocery stores. Cindi and I acknowledge that many people don't have access to the flours that would be used in traditional gluten free baking, but the abundance of gluten free baking mixes now available can go a long way to filling that gap. You can find Cindi on her website Everyday Gluten Free Gourmet as well as on social media.

    January 2026 Roundup

    Hapy New Year! It's the beginning of January 2026 which means I can take the opportunity to speak again with Ellen Bayens of theceliacscene.com about news and information she has brought to our attention over the past month. Ellen speaks to us about a study done on children properly diagnosed with celiac disease who, after months on the gluten free diet and lower antibody numbers are still showing symptoms. The study may show a link between these symptoms and a condition called DGBI (Disorders of Gut-Brain Interaction). Ellen has informed us of the testing process of an app for our phones which is in development that will allow us to scan food labels and with the app using AI, it will determine if the food is gluten free or not. Both Ellen and I have praise and concerns about this one. I explain to Ellen the continuing process of the Celiac Canada petition to government to allow for a tax "break" to compensate for our increased food costs. Ellen reminds us of the updated Gluten Free Fast Food Listings on her website for both Canada and the US. As well, Ellen fills us in on her test of a new pizza available at Costco and other cooking she did over the holidays. If you have anything you'd like to hear Ellen and I discuss in our next conversation you can send me an email to acdnceliacpodcast@gmail.com or to Ellen at ellen@theceliacscene.com.

    Petition Update with Melissa

    On this podcast I speak with Melissa Secord, Executive Director of Celiac Canada regarding the recent petition that was up for signatures. The time to sign has now closed and I was interested in how successful the CCA was in getting signatures a second time for this petition, and what the next steps are to push for the reality to make gluten free more affordable in Canada.
