Celiac Scene June News Round Up on 'A Canadian Celiac Podcast'

“If you’ve never tried a podcast before, they are a great way to listen and learn while you are busy doing something else – cooking, hiking, driving or just relaxing. You choose!” Cinde Little, everydayglutenfreegourmet.ca

Ellen brings us a raft of information:

We start out with a couple of studies, the first into attitudes among celiacs towards dating. There is much hesitation, social anxiety and a tendency towards risky behaviour (gluten-wise). Although Ellen and I are not in the target age group for this study, we can relate to many of the hesitancies from our own lives that are amplified in the dating scene.
The second study is an eye-opening look at the awareness of celiac disease in the dental profession. Dr. Melissa Ing, whom I have interviewed for this podcast, surveyed a group of dental professionals before a celiac information session and then again after. She was able to teach them a great deal in a short time regarding questions to be asked when certain symptoms are identified.

New resources, ones we didn’t even know we needed:

Sick Kids Hospital in Toronto has come out with new teaching modules about celiac disease and the gluten free diet. These modules are interactive and suitable for young children to do with parents, or for older kids to do on their own. The information is set out in an easy to use format that would be useful to educate other family members and friends.
Ellen shows us a novel way to use the restaurant translation cards from celiactravel.com.
On a different level Honeycomb.ai brings us an artificial intelligence solution to finding just the right meal at just the right restaurant to meet your specialty diet needs.
Ellen introduces us to Desiree Neilsen RD, who has started a new podcast called The Allsorts Podcast, in which she gets down to earth with practical diet knowledge that will help us all make better food choices. She is a proponent of a plant based diet, and that suits Ellen just fine.
