The Gluten Dude turns 47 today. How the hell did that happen?? It’s just a number…it’s just a number…it’s just a number. That’s my mantra for the day. As I blow the candles out on my sushi tonight, here is what I’ll be wishing […]

So last week, I met with a doctor who is now my primary care physician. Gave her my recent symptoms: exhaustion, headaches, stomach aches, etc. But also went over my medical history (celiac, bladder cancer, pulmonary embolisms) and she was quite perplexed as to […]

Ok…The Gluten Dude is jumping into the product review business. Well, I wouldn’t really call it a business ’cause, you know, I’m not making any money on it or anything. But lately I’ve been getting samples sent to me. It’s pretty cool. But I […]

I was more than blessed enough to be married already when I was diagnosed with celiac disease. I can’t imagine dating while dealing with the food issues we’ve got to deal with. As Mrs. Dude says jokingly (I think)…”Good luck finding somebody who will […]

People are idiots. Not me of course. And certainly not you. But everyone else? Idiots. How else to explain the utterly ridiculous comments that so many celiacs must put up with? Come on people…common sense and common courtesy really aren’t that difficult. We’re not […]

I know what you’re thinking… “Gluten Dude, unless you somehow “changed teams” over the weekend, how you can possibly know what it’s like to be a girl with celiac disease?” In response to your wise-beyond-your-years observation, let me introduce you to today’s guest blogger. […]

First, a quick Dude health update: I went to see my GI yesterday. He says something is definitely going on, but it is not necessarily the celiac. My blood work from a few months back showed no gluten antibodies, so it’s not hidden gluten […]

How’s that for a headline? I bet you can go the next nine years and never see the words “gluten free”, “sex” and “$27” in the same sentence. So what if I was to tell you I could show you how to have safe, […]

I am one sick puppy. And as much as I wish that I meant that in a cool way…frankly, it’s just the opposite. Having celiac disease so does not make me feel cool. I simply cannot put a good stretch of health together and […]
Read MoreWho I am. And who I'm not.
I AM someone who's been gluten-free since 2007 due to a diagnosis of severe celiac disease. I'm someone who can steer you in the right direction when it comes to going gluten-free. And I'm someone who will always give you the naked truth about going gluten free.
I AM NOT someone who embraces this gluten-free craziness. I didn’t find freedom, a better life or any of that other crap when I got diagnosed. With all due respect to Hunter S. Thompson, I found fear and loathing of an unknown world. But if I can share my wisdom, tell my stories and make the transition easier on you, I’ve done my job.
