About the Podcast:
Celiac disease is a genetic disorder affecting children and adults. It is more common that many people previously believed and causes a wide range of serious health problems.

People with celiac disease are unable to eat foods that contain gluten, which is found in wheat and other grains. For many years, researchers have been working diligently to find the cause of this disease and better treatment options for patients suffering from it. Currently, the cure is to strictly avoid eating any gluten-containing foods.
