We look at 2 seemingly conflicting recent studies.  A recent study conducted by the FDA says that food labeled gluten free almost always adheres to the gluten free standards in the U.S. The other study from The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition showed that most celiacs are consuming a much higher level of gluten than is safe. So what gives? We speculate on some of the reasons why we think this is happening.

We also compare Dicke's work to that of Dr. Sidney Haas who popularized the "banana diet" to treat celiac disease starting in the 1920s, and how that might ultimately still be holding the U.S. back.

Mar 7, 2018

Mike and Cam ponder the results of a new Columbia University study that shows that people with celiac disease who are hypervigilent about their gluten free diet actually have a lower quality of life.
