Q&A: How gluten-free processed foods put people with celiac disease at risk

Public health expert Emily Abel discusses with STAT the challenges to finding truly gluten-free foods, the topic of her new book.

#glutened

Ugh - it’s similar to the feeling of having a cold coming on and an allergic reaction where my eyes feel swollen. I take a Covid test each time because it feels like the beginnings of covid when I had it.

I hate this and not sure how to make it go away quicker. This feeling can literally last on and off for days.

Another weird #medical thing I've dealt with:

It took me until my late twenties to realize I have some sort of #GlutenIntolerance and one of the symptoms for me was blacking out every time i drank whiskey, beer or other grain based alcohol. (Even though Google will say the distillation process removes gluten- I would still react to it, and have a "hangover" sometimes lasting up to two weeks.)
