nderscoring its role as a leader
in online tools for the gluten-
free community, Celiac Disease
Foundation (CDF) today launched the Gluten-
Free Allergy-Free Marketplace, a new retail
destination hosted on celiac.org. Featured
at celiac.org/marketplace, the Marketplace
showcases products and services from
companies that care about the gluten-free
and allergy-free community, and have made
a deep commitment to supporting CDF’s
mission of diagnosis, treatment, and a cure
for celiac disease.
The Gluten-Free Allergy-Free Marketplace
allows consumers to browse by dietary
preferences, including special medical,
dietary, and religious requirements, and view
product pictures, ingredients, and nutrition
facts. Marketplace users can connect with
companies for coupons, discounts, and
recipes, create shopping lists, and support
CDF by purchasing products directly from
Amazon.com with a single click. CDF’s Gluten-
Free Allergy-Free Marketplace is the only
comprehensive one-stop shop for alternative
dietary needs. The Marketplace revolutionizes
gluten-free shopping, making specialty foods,
services, and products easily accessible to the
public. Marketplace users also have access to
CDF’s other tools, including the Symptoms
Checklist (celiac.org/checklist), Healthcare
Practitioner Directory (celiac.org/directory),
and 7-Day Kick Start Meal Plan (celiac.org/
mealplan).
“Celiac Disease Foundation’s goal is
to become a destination website for all
searches relating to celiac disease and the
gluten-free lifestyle,”said Marilyn G. Geller,
Chief Executive Officer of Celiac Disease
Foundation. The Gluten-Free Allergy-
Free Marketplace provides access to life-
enhancing products and services, while
allowing consumers to support both CDF and
the companies who support the CDF mission.
Since its new website launch in 2014,
the charitable non-profit has seen a 1400%
increase in visitors to celiac.org. A Gluten-
Free Allergy-Free Marketplace app for Apple’s
iOS will be available in the second quarter of
2015. An Android app is planned for the fall.

E
very goal in Celiac Disease Foundation’s three-year strategic plan is vitally important
to our objective to end the needless suffering that celiac disease causes millions of
Americans. If you haven’t had the opportunity to do so, I encourage you to read the
Executive Summary of our plan that we have posted online and share with me your thoughts.
There is a reason, however, why the FIRST BULLET POINT IN THE FIRST GOAL in our strategic plan
is to educate healthcare providers about celiac disease. Even today, far too many healthcare
providers — doctors, physician assistants, and nurse practitioners — lack knowledge about
this disease that afflicts 1 in 100 people, and impacts so many more. Dr. Amy Burkhart is both
a medical doctor and a Registered Dietitian based in Northern California; after the Behar
comments last month, she wrote me the following:
If you ever need anyone to speak to physicians in Northern CA I am happy to do
that… The last two talks I have given were grand rounds--eye opening how much the
physicians still need the information! It gets the word and proper information out to
the medical community which is so needed. I simply don’t have time or resources to
set these speaking events up but if you have someone who does this and would like to
reach to N. CA-It is something very important to me — I would be happy to help. 
This ignorance means that, every day, suffering patients visit their healthcare providers
who fail to test them for celiac disease. Every day, these well-meaning professionals send their
patients back out the door in pain, frustrated, and still needlessly exposed to the myriad of
short- and long-term risks associated with untreated celiac disease.
Today, CDF’s Grand Rounds program for doctors is limited to Southern California. Sadly, we
lack sufficient resources to expand it to Northern California, much less around the country. We
also need more resources to offer additional professional education programs to reach and
educate the hundreds of thousands of healthcare providers who can, by ordering a simple
blood test, help end the suffering.
Together, we can make essential programs like these happen. We must.

any of you know the story
of Elaine Monarch and how
she came to start Celiac
Disease Foundation (CDF) 25 years ago
as a support group for individuals with
celiac disease and their loved ones.
What I want to tell you about
during this celebration of CDF’s 25th
anniversary is Elaine’s continuing role as
a guiding force of this great organization.
I also want to share with you our plans
to celebrate this extraordinary woman
and her accomplishments at a special
anniversary dinner on May 2nd at the
Pasadena Civic Auditorium Gold Room.
When Elaine founded CDF, there
was widespread and, quite honestly,
shameful ignorance within the medical
community about celiac disease.
She saw the excruciating agony the
disease was causing for both adults and
children. She recognized the despair
that arose from victims repeatedly
being told that nothing was wrong with
them. Quickly, Elaine became the voice
of reason, expertise, compassion, and
empathy to the Southern California celiac community. After seeing
doctor after doctor, sufferers, or, as often, their loved ones at wit’s
end, would show up in our offices, and Elaine would immediately stop
whatever she was doing, invite them into her office and offer a box of
Kleenex, a sympathetic ear, and sound advice.
In my mind, Elaine’s greatest legacy was her remarkable vision
to use the power of community to bring celiac disease out of the
shadows. She organized the medical community to focus on research,
to create easier testing protocols, and
to increase the diagnosis rate. She
organized the patient community
domestically and internationally to offer
one another much needed support, to
push for more gluten-free diet options,
and for enhanced patient rights. She
organized the non-profit and advocacy
community to push for clear standards
on gluten-free food labeling and to spur
government research.
On May 2nd, we are coming
together to celebrate our founder,
Elaine Monarch, at a special 25th
Anniversary Gala – An Evening of
Comedy & Magic. Dinner details may
be found at celiac.org/25dinner, or by
calling the CDF Office at 818.716.1513,
x101. I believe it will be a fitting tribute
to a visionary leader. Elaine will be the
first to tell you that much work remains
to be done. The proceeds from this
event will allow CDF to continue her
legacy of service and change. Please
plan on joining us. I look forward to
seeing you there.

Celiac Disease &Type 1 Diabetes
I
n cases of type 1 diabetes, the immune system attacks and destroys the specialized cells in
the pancreas that produce insulin. When the body can no longer produce sufficient insulin
(a protein that regulates blood glucose concentration) the resulting chronically high glucose
levels in the blood (hyperglycemia) cause blood vessel and nerve damage. This can lead to
serious complications, such as: stroke, heart disease, kidney disease, and amputation.
Symptoms for diabetes include: frequent urination, thirst, hunger, weight loss, dry mouth,
and fatigue.
The exact cause that starts the autoimmune reaction in type 1 diabetes is still not
understood. There are genetic and environmental factors that can increase the risk of
developing diabetes, as well as certain drugs that lead to the specific destruction of the beta
cells. The condition is usually diagnosed in children or young adults, which is why it was once
called juvenile diabetes.
Diabetes is much easier to test for than celiac disease. A blood test, usually done after a
period of fasting, measures how much glucose is in the blood. If it is over a certain threshold,
the person has diabetes or pre-diabetes. If caught early enough, the auto-antibodies
(antibodies that attack the body) can be tested for before the patient actually has diabetes or
pre-diabetes.
Treating diabetes typically involves both a change in diet as well as insulin injections.
Patients must monitor and control their blood sugar at all times to avoid hyperglycemia as well
as hypoglycemia (low blood sugar).
Type 2 Diabetes
Patients with type 2 diabetes still have insulin-producing cells in the pancreas, but they
do not produce enough insulin, or their other cells do not respond to insulin. This lack of
responsiveness is called insulin resistance. This insulin resistance results in high blood glucose
concentrations similar to type 1 diabetes, and can cause similar symptoms and complications.
The causes of type 2 diabetes are less established than for type 1, but there are certain things
that can put someone at higher risk:
n	 Being overweight
n	 Being inactive
n	 Having family members with type 2 diabetes
n	 Having a certain ethnicity, such as African American, Asian-American, Hispanic, or Native American
n	 Being over age 45
n	 Developing pre-diabetes or gestational diabetes
n	 Having polycystic ovary syndrome
Diabetes and Celiac Disease
The link between type 1 diabetes mellitus and celiac disease was first established in
the 1960s. The estimated prevalence of celiac disease in patients with type 1 diabetes
is approximately 8%, and about 1% in the general population. Most patients with both
conditions have asymptomatic celiac disease, or symptoms that may be confused for
symptoms of their diabetes. For this reason, and the significantly higher prevalence of celiac
disease in diabetes patients, many doctors recommend getting screened for celiac disease after
a diagnosis of type 1 diabetes, as well as celiac patients getting screened for type 1 diabetes.
A recent study in 2013, to which Dr. Peter Green, a member of Celiac Disease Foundation’s
Medical Advisory Board, contributed, found that there were no standard uniform practices
for screening type 1 diabetes patients for celiac disease. Of the facilities in the study that did
screen for celiac disease, 60% of them only did so if there were symptoms present. The authors
of the study suggested that a uniform protocol for screening should be in place, as well as a
need for further education on the gluten-free diet in patients with type 1 diabetes for dietitians.
There is no established link between type 2 diabetes and celiac disease. Type 2 diabetes

microwave for 5 minutes first. Cook bacon in a skillet, then add diced onion until browned
(approx. 5 minutes).
Remove from heat. In a bowl, whisk together eggs, then add ricotta cheese. Stir in bacon
and onions, 1 cup grated parmesan, cooked peas (optional), salt and pepper. When spaghetti
squash has cooled enough to touch, use a fork to shred the inside flesh into spaghetti-like
strings all the way down to the outer shell. Mix the squash strings into the bacon-onion-cheese
mixture. Spread in a 9x13 glass baking dish and top with remaining ¼ cup parmesan cheese.
Bake for 45 minutes at 375°F.
Serves 10. Approximate nutrition per serving (1 cup): 265 calories, 16g total fat (6g saturated), 12g
total carbohydrate (2g dietary fiber, 1g sugars), 18g protein
Ingredients
2 cups quinoa flakes
½ cup chopped nuts (pecans, walnuts)
¼ cup ground Hodgson Mill Milled Flaxseed
2 tsp ground cinnamon
5 tbsp agave nectar
2 tbsp coconut oil, melted
2 tsp vanilla extract
Directions
Preheat oven to 325°F. Line large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or foil. In a large
bowl, combine quinoa flakes, nuts, flaxseed, and cinnamon. In a medium bowl, whisk together
agave, coconut oil, and vanilla extract until well blended. Add the agave mixture to the quinoa
mixture and stir until well coated. Spread mixture in a single layer on prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 22-27 minutes, or until golden brown. Let cool completely on pan. Transfer granola to
airtight container and store at room temperature for up to two weeks.

Y
ou have been diagnosed with celiac
disease, or you have been told
you are gluten intolerant. You are
committed to removing every bit of gluten
from your diet, but what about products
such as prescription or over the counter
(non-prescription) medications? Should you
be concerned? The true chances of getting a
medication that contains gluten is extremely
small, but as a protector of your health, you
should eliminate all risks by evaluating the
ingredients in your medications.
Oral medications in the form of tablets
and capsules are a potential source of gluten
contamination. Medications are composed of
many ingredients, both inside and outside of
the product. These ingredients, also known
as excipients, include the active component,
absorbents (which absorb water to allow
the tablet to swell and disintegrate),
protectants, binders, coloring agents,
lubricators, and bulking agents (which allow
some products to dissolve slowly as they
travel throughout the intestinal tract).
Excipients can be synthetic or from natural
sources that are derived from either plants or
animals. Excipients are considered inactive
and safe for human use by the FDA, but can
be a potential source for unwanted reactions.
Database Search for
Ingredient Source
One common excipient is starch. The most
common type of starch used is from corn;
however, starches derived from potato,
tapioca, and wheat are also used. A recent
search of medications listed on a National
Library of Medicine database, managed
in conjunction with the National Institute
of Health, showed that there were 8,379
individual products or dosage forms that
contained the word“starch.”Searching
specifically for the word“corn”reveals 6,518
records,“potato”reveals 2,934 records,
“tapioca”reveals 17 records, while the
word “wheat”reveals 11 records. The total
adds up to more than the 8,379 records
because many products have more than one
starch contained within the product. This
database is called Pillbox, and can be
accessed at http://pillbox.nlm.nih.gov/
pillimage/search.php.
A second database, maintained by
the same government organization, lists
a total of 70,776 drug records; however,
not all of the records have been categorized
allowing a full search of a drug product based
on their ingredients. This database is called
DailyMed, and can be accessed at http://
dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/index.cfm.
Both of these sites are extremely helpful
in determining the potential for gluten
contamination.
ProtectingYourself From Possible
Gluten in Medication
Currently, there is no law that mandates that
the drug manufacturers disclose the source
of these excipients in any public record or
database, and we have to rely on calling
the manufacturer to obtain information.
Anybody who has ever done this knows how
difficult it is to obtain accurate information.
Some drug companies are very open with
their information, while others either give
incomplete or even false information.
Often, you are told that the company does
not use any gluten in the manufacturing of
their product, but they won’t guarantee it to
be gluten-free.
As a consumer, how do you protect
yourself when trying to obtain information
regarding the gluten status of a drug when
the information you are receiving is either
incomplete or questionable? By looking at
the excipients, you can get a pretty clear
picture of the potential for contamination. As
mentioned earlier, the most likely source
of gluten contamination will come from
starch. It is highly unlikely that any excipient
other than starch will contain any measurable
amount of gluten. When the excipient listed
for the product contains the single word
“starch,”it can come from any starch source.
Unlike in the food industry where plain starch
must be derived from corn, this does not
apply to the pharmaceutical industry.
A second type of starch is pre-gelatinized
starch. This is primarily derived from corn,
but it can be derived from any source. A third
type of starch is sodium starch glycolate.
This is primarily derived from potato, but
occasionally is derived from corn. Like pre-
gelatinized starch, sodium starch glycolate
can be derived from any starch source. Often
times, the ingredients are actually listed as
corn starch, which makes it easy to identify
the source. Finally, there is the rare occasion
when you see the dreadful words“wheat
starch.”By using the two FDA websites
mentioned above, you can frequently find
the source of the starch.
Using the information provided above,
you can make an educated decision to take
that product or look for a substitute. If you are
told by the company that they do use gluten
in their product, ask them to disclose what
the source of the gluten is. If they tell you they
use wheat starch, naturally you would avoid
using the product. If they tell you it is derived
from a wheat source, the chances are that they
are referring to one of the sugar alcohols, also
known as polyols.These are highly processed
sugars that contain no wheat gluten, and
therefore cannot cause a reaction. Examples
of these sugar alcohols are mannitol, sorbitol,
sorbitan, maltitol, xylitol, lactitol, erythritol, and
hydrogenated starch hydrolysates. Another
misrepresented ingredient is wheat
maltodextran, or plain maltodextran.
Cross-Contamination Risk in
Manufacturing
A drug company may tell you that they won’t
guarantee their product to be gluten-free
due to the potential of cross contamination
in their manufacturing plant. Although
this is a possibility, it would be extremely
unlikely to occur due to the level of air quality
control the manufacturing plants must have
in place for the FDA to allow drugs to be
manufactured in their facility.

he experience of health in my family is somewhat of a
dichotomous one. I was, ostensibly, born healthy, to relatively
healthy parents. My brother, two years my junior, was born
with eczema and acne, was colicky, and had allergies and asthma that
sent him to the hospital many times in his youth. To everyone’s great
delight, he always emerged unscathed and life moved forward.
I suppose the first sign of trouble was around puberty for me. I was
a very active young professional horseback rider, and I had a career
in it until my allergies suddenly presented with the same severity my
brother’s had at birth. My asthma was crippling, and
I experienced profound mood changes. The contrast
was stark: my brother, once unhealthy, was strong,
while I was in for rounds of tests after years of being
perfectly and robustly healthy. I finished high school
well, went to Duke University, and there began to
have problems again. I was experiencing seemingly
random weight gain, brain fog, reoccurrence of
asthma and allergic symptoms, and was constantly
tired. At the inception of my celiac symptoms,
I thought I was experiencing relatively normal
responses to college: drinking beer for the first time
en masse, eating pizza at 2:00am, and in general
treating my body as disposable.
My future husband, Thomas, had been watching
my body fall apart for the few months he had known
me. I was at the end of my rope; he was at his wit’s end, too. I started
hunting around the Internet for solutions, considered autoimmune
issues, and finally found the Celiac Disease Foundation website.
While Thomas was in class at law school, I checked off a list of
symptoms, read stories of confusion and misdiagnoses, and did my
own version of CDF’s 7-Day Meal plan. Suddenly, with almost criminal
clarity, I knew the answer.
Thomas and I scrubbed gluten from our diets, though I knew it
would make CD much harder to diagnose. I was feeling so much better: I
was losing all of the inflammation weight, my asthma was disappearing,
and my mood stabilized. My anxiety attacks evaporated, and I felt like
myself for the first time in three years. My husband held me while I cried
from relief. In the course of a month, I felt human again.
When Thomas and I moved up north to New York, I went back to an
old nutritionist, and she ordered a battery of blood tests. I suggested
that I had been on the Celiac Disease Foundation website, and that
a lot of my issues were on the handy checklist used for a preliminary
diagnosis to ask your doctor about. I told her I felt much better now
that I had cut gluten out of my life. I remember very clearly that she
was skeptical since my symptoms hadn’t presented early in my life,
but ordered the tests anyway. She told me that the tests would reveal
nothing except genetics, but I wanted proof. My family, despite
being health-conscious, was resistant to the idea of CD without hard
evidence. The tests showed, ultimately, that I was a heterozygote
match for the gene, and my gastroenterologist confirmed diagnosis.
CDF has been a guiding light in my experience with CD, as I know
they have been for many other otherwise hopeless patients. In a time
in my life that I term as the“pea soup fog period,”the information I
found from the Foundation cut through. What could have happened
had I not found CDF and their bountiful resources about this disease?
For one, I know I would have been hospitalized
several more times before I found out the truth. I
certainly would not have been as healthy as I am
now—and I would not have joined Team Gluten-
Free’s efforts to spread the health around.
About a year after my diagnosis, I found myself
having profound cravings for beer. My husband,
bless his heart, is a strapping, beer-drinking
German, and I watched him enjoy hefeweizens,
Oktoberfests, lagers, pumpkin ales, Schwarzbeir; I
wanted to cry. So, I resolved to start brewing on my
own. After about six months, I thought that I could
step it up and actually go into business. Church Owl
Beer was born shortly thereafter, and we are now in
it for the long haul.
Of course, I had to include CDF in my journey:
they had so revolutionized my life that I felt I had to give back, at
least in some small way. When I found out about Team Gluten-Free, I
went to my friends and Agent Provocateur, and swiftly put together
an event that would benefit CDF. The focus was on women with the
disease and the symptoms they experience, such as infertility, weight
gain, and hormonal imbalances, just to name a few. Thus, the Beers
and Blazers event was formed. Partygoers would try on fabulous
lingerie-inspired outerwear, sample Church Owl Beer’s autumn brew,
and 10% of the proceeds would go to CDF.
My experience with Team Gluten-Free was nothing short of
phenomenal. Several members of the team reached out and sent
wonderful informational placards, banners, and take-home sheets for
goodie bags (we supplied shot glasses with Church Owl Beer’s logo,
and Agent Provocateur gave their signature keychain). I am so happy
to say that the event was a total success, bringing together sufferers
and supporters alike for a wonderful cause.
I have come a very long way since I was diagnosed, and even
further from the months leading up to diagnosis. Without the support
of Celiac Disease Foundation, I would not, really, be who I am now.
Further, I would not have found my calling in the beer industry, and I
would not have been able to give back to them in turn.

C
eliac disease is an autoimmune disorder that can occur
in genetically predisposed people where the ingestion of
gluten leads to damage in the small intestine. People with
celiac disease are also at higher risk for other autoimmune diseases.
Therefore, it is not unreasonable to wonder if the immune system of
celiac patients is different in other ways, such as how it responds to
vaccinations. For the most part, vaccinations work just as effectively as
they do in the general population. There is one notable exception that
has been uncovered: hepatitis B.
Hepatitis B is a disease that affects the liver. Caused by the
hepatitis B virus (HBV), it
can be transmitted through
blood and other bodily fluids.
Hepatitis B can present either
chronically (long-term) or
acutely (suddenly), but both
kinds can be fatal. The disease
is present in less than 1% of
North Americans, but is still
common in sub-Saharan Africa
and East Asia.
The hepatitis B vaccine has
been around since the 1980s
and it is one of the safest
vaccines available. The World
Health Organization suggests
vaccinating infants in their first
day of life, as well as later on
for the full protective effect.
Like all vaccines, there is some
percentage of people who
simply do not respond, and
therefore do not develop immunity to the disease. There are many
factors that are associated with non-responsiveness, such as smoking
habits, age, and obesity. This is one reason, among others, that it is
important for as many people as possible to get vaccinated, so that
these“non-responders”are protected from the disease through“herd
immunity.”When enough people are successfully immunized against
a disease, it helps protect people who are still vulnerable by reducing
their contact to the disease. Even if someone had no response to a
vaccine against a harmful disease, as long as everyone around them
was vaccinated, the person won’t ever have the chance to contract the
disease; this is herd immunity. In the general population, about 4-10%
of people are non-responders.
For celiac patients, the hepatitis B vaccine is just as safe, but it
is far less effective. In a study published in 2003, Dr. Joseph Murray
of the CDF Medical Advisory Board, and other researchers searched
through a medical database and found that out of 19 people with
celiac disease who also were vaccinated for hepatitis B, 13 did not
show an adequate response. Many studies have confirmed that
celiac patients have a very high rate of non-response to the hepatitis
B vaccine.
The exact reason for this phenomenon is most likely genetic, at
least in part. Interestingly, a 2007 study in of Hungary found that celiac
patients who were already being treated with a gluten-free diet fared
much better than those still
eating gluten. The paper,
titled“Gluten Intake Interferes
With the Humoral Immune
Response to Recombinant
Hepatitis B Vaccine in
Patients With Celiac Disease,”
monitored blood antibody
levels in children to keep
track of both celiac disease
activity (transglutaminase
and endomysium antibodies)
and hepatitis B immunity
(anti-HBs).
The researchers in that
study found that not only did
the children on a gluten-free
diet respond as well as the
control group to the hepatitis
B vaccine, but children who
initially showed no response
to the vaccine were able to
later develop immunity by going on a gluten-free diet and getting
re-vaccinated. The authors also suggest that patients who do not
respond to the hepatitis B vaccine be tested for celiac disease.
These results were mirrored by another study done in Turkey
around the same time in 2010. The group of researchers tested
known celiac patients who had been vaccinated for hepatitis B, and
found that the rate of non-response was significantly higher in the
celiac patients when compared to controls (32.5% versus 14.8%
respectively). But in celiac patients who were vaccinated after they
were diagnosed and already on a gluten-free diet, the difference in
response rate was insignificant. From these studies, it seems that only
patients with active and untreated celiac disease are at risk for not
responding to the hepatitis B vaccine.
Celiac Disease andVaccinations by Saul Geller
For people with celiac disease, vaccinations tend to work just as effectively as they do for
the general population with one notable exception: hepatitis B. Celiac disease testing is
recommended for non-responders to the hepatitis B vaccine who are not already diagnosed.
The authors also suggest that patients who
do not respond to the hepatitis B vaccine be
tested for celiac disease.

does have genetic components, but they
are not associated with celiac disease
genes like those of type 1 diabetes. The
gluten-free diet may improve glycemic
control for diabetic patients, although
that is still controversial, as some studies
support the idea and others suggest
there is no difference in glycemic control
between normal diabetic patients and
diabetic patients with celiac disease on a
gluten-free diet.
Untreated celiac disease, leading to
a damaged small intestine, can increase
risk of hypoglycemia because the small
intestine may no longer be able to absorb
nutrients such as sugars properly, making
diagnosis even more imperative. Having
one autoimmune disease puts you at
greater risk for developing another. To see
other symptoms and conditions associated
with celiac disease, check out our
Symptoms Checklist (celiac.org/checklist),
which you can print out and bring to your
doctor to help with the diagnosis for you
or a loved one.

If you haven’t had the opportunity to do so, I encourage you to read the Executive Summary of our plan that we have posted online and share with me your thoughts. There is a reason, however, why the FIRST BULLET POINT IN THE FIRST GOAL in our strategic plan is to educate healthcare providers about celiac disease. Even today, far too many healthcare providers — doctors, physician assistants, and nurse practitioners — lack knowledge about this disease that afflicts 1 in 100 people, and impacts so many more. Dr. Amy Burkhart is both a medical doctor and a Registered Dietitian based in Northern California; after the Behar comments last month, she wrote me the following: If you ever need anyone to speak to physicians in Northern CA I am happy to do that… The last two talks I have given were grand rounds--eye opening how much the physicians still need the information! It gets the word and proper information out to the medical community which is so needed. I simply don’t have time or resources to set these speaking events up but if you have someone who does this and would like to reach to N. CA-It is something very important to me — I would be happy to help.  This ignorance means that, every day, suffering patients visit their healthcare providers who fail to test them for celiac disease. Every day, these well-meaning professionals send their patients back out the door in pain, frustrated, and still needlessly exposed to the myriad of short- and long-term risks associated with untreated celiac disease. Today, CDF’s Grand Rounds program for doctors is limited to Southern California. Sadly, we lack sufficient resources to expand it to Northern California, much less around the country. We also need more resources to offer additional professional education programs to reach and educate the hundreds of thousands of healthcare providers who can, by ordering a simple blood test, help end the suffering. Together, we can make essential programs like these happen. We must. 20350 Ventura Blvd. Suite 240 Woodland Hills, CA 91364 (818) 716-1513 • info@celiac.org To Our Health, Marilyn G.

  • 5. SPRING 2015 CDF INSIGHT • 5 M any of you know the story of Elaine Monarch and how she came to start Celiac Disease Foundation (CDF) 25 years ago as a support group for individuals with celiac disease and their loved ones. What I want to tell you about during this celebration of CDF’s 25th anniversary is Elaine’s continuing role as a guiding force of this great organization. I also want to share with you our plans to celebrate this extraordinary woman and her accomplishments at a special anniversary dinner on May 2nd at the Pasadena Civic Auditorium Gold Room. When Elaine founded CDF, there was widespread and, quite honestly, shameful ignorance within the medical community about celiac disease. She saw the excruciating agony the disease was causing for both adults and children. She recognized the despair that arose from victims repeatedly being told that nothing was wrong with them. Quickly, Elaine became the voice of reason, expertise, compassion, and empathy to the Southern California celiac community. After seeing doctor after doctor, sufferers, or, as often, their loved ones at wit’s end, would show up in our offices, and Elaine would immediately stop whatever she was doing, invite them into her office and offer a box of Kleenex, a sympathetic ear, and sound advice. In my mind, Elaine’s greatest legacy was her remarkable vision to use the power of community to bring celiac disease out of the shadows. She organized the medical community to focus on research, to create easier testing protocols, and to increase the diagnosis rate. She organized the patient community domestically and internationally to offer one another much needed support, to push for more gluten-free diet options, and for enhanced patient rights. She organized the non-profit and advocacy community to push for clear standards on gluten-free food labeling and to spur government research. On May 2nd, we are coming together to celebrate our founder, Elaine Monarch, at a special 25th Anniversary Gala – An Evening of Comedy & Magic. Dinner details may be found at celiac.org/25dinner, or by calling the CDF Office at 818.716.1513, x101. I believe it will be a fitting tribute to a visionary leader. Elaine will be the first to tell you that much work remains to be done. The proceeds from this event will allow CDF to continue her legacy of service and change. Please plan on joining us. I look forward to seeing you there. Board Chair’s Message Inmymind,Elaine’s greatestlegacyis herremarkablevisionto usethepowerofcommunity tobringceliacdiseaseout oftheshadows.

As CDF’s resource to help our community live gluten-free, she is here to provide tips and tricks for simple and delicious eating throughout the year. Janelle hosts a webinar each month geared toward the time of year, co-occurring diseases, or any relevant news in the gluten-free world. This month, Janelle discusses celiac disease and type 1 diabetes. The“Ask-the- Dietitian”section of our website provides the resources, tools, and advice you need to maximize your health. To view previous webinars, please visit celiac. org/webinars. Celiac Disease &Type 1 Diabetes I n cases of type 1 diabetes, the immune system attacks and destroys the specialized cells in the pancreas that produce insulin. When the body can no longer produce sufficient insulin (a protein that regulates blood glucose concentration) the resulting chronically high glucose levels in the blood (hyperglycemia) cause blood vessel and nerve damage. This can lead to serious complications, such as: stroke, heart disease, kidney disease, and amputation. Symptoms for diabetes include: frequent urination, thirst, hunger, weight loss, dry mouth, and fatigue. The exact cause that starts the autoimmune reaction in type 1 diabetes is still not understood. There are genetic and environmental factors that can increase the risk of developing diabetes, as well as certain drugs that lead to the specific destruction of the beta cells. The condition is usually diagnosed in children or young adults, which is why it was once called juvenile diabetes. Diabetes is much easier to test for than celiac disease. A blood test, usually done after a period of fasting, measures how much glucose is in the blood. If it is over a certain threshold, the person has diabetes or pre-diabetes. If caught early enough, the auto-antibodies (antibodies that attack the body) can be tested for before the patient actually has diabetes or pre-diabetes. Treating diabetes typically involves both a change in diet as well as insulin injections. Patients must monitor and control their blood sugar at all times to avoid hyperglycemia as well as hypoglycemia (low blood sugar). Type 2 Diabetes Patients with type 2 diabetes still have insulin-producing cells in the pancreas, but they do not produce enough insulin, or their other cells do not respond to insulin. This lack of responsiveness is called insulin resistance. This insulin resistance results in high blood glucose concentrations similar to type 1 diabetes, and can cause similar symptoms and complications. The causes of type 2 diabetes are less established than for type 1, but there are certain things that can put someone at higher risk: n Being overweight n Being inactive n Having family members with type 2 diabetes n Having a certain ethnicity, such as African American, Asian-American, Hispanic, or Native American n Being over age 45 n Developing pre-diabetes or gestational diabetes n Having polycystic ovary syndrome Diabetes and Celiac Disease The link between type 1 diabetes mellitus and celiac disease was first established in the 1960s. The estimated prevalence of celiac disease in patients with type 1 diabetes is approximately 8%, and about 1% in the general population. Most patients with both conditions have asymptomatic celiac disease, or symptoms that may be confused for symptoms of their diabetes. For this reason, and the significantly higher prevalence of celiac disease in diabetes patients, many doctors recommend getting screened for celiac disease after a diagnosis of type 1 diabetes, as well as celiac patients getting screened for type 1 diabetes. A recent study in 2013, to which Dr. Peter Green, a member of Celiac Disease Foundation’s Medical Advisory Board, contributed, found that there were no standard uniform practices for screening type 1 diabetes patients for celiac disease. Of the facilities in the study that did screen for celiac disease, 60% of them only did so if there were symptoms present. The authors of the study suggested that a uniform protocol for screening should be in place, as well as a need for further education on the gluten-free diet in patients with type 1 diabetes for dietitians. There is no established link between type 2 diabetes and celiac disease. Type 2 diabetes Continued page 26

Directions Cut squash in half length-wise and scoop out seeds with spoon to discard. Place squash halves cut-side down on baking sheet or dish with ½ cup water. Bake at 350°F for 45 minutes, or until easily pierced by a fork. Tip: to cut down baking time to 30 minutes and make it easier to cut through the squash, microwave for 5 minutes first. Cook bacon in a skillet, then add diced onion until browned (approx. 5 minutes). Remove from heat. In a bowl, whisk together eggs, then add ricotta cheese. Stir in bacon and onions, 1 cup grated parmesan, cooked peas (optional), salt and pepper. When spaghetti squash has cooled enough to touch, use a fork to shred the inside flesh into spaghetti-like strings all the way down to the outer shell. Mix the squash strings into the bacon-onion-cheese mixture. Spread in a 9x13 glass baking dish and top with remaining ¼ cup parmesan cheese. Bake for 45 minutes at 375°F. Serves 10. Approximate nutrition per serving (1 cup): 265 calories, 16g total fat (6g saturated), 12g total carbohydrate (2g dietary fiber, 1g sugars), 18g protein Ingredients 2 cups quinoa flakes ½ cup chopped nuts (pecans, walnuts) ¼ cup ground Hodgson Mill Milled Flaxseed 2 tsp ground cinnamon 5 tbsp agave nectar 2 tbsp coconut oil, melted 2 tsp vanilla extract Directions Preheat oven to 325°F. Line large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or foil. In a large bowl, combine quinoa flakes, nuts, flaxseed, and cinnamon. In a medium bowl, whisk together agave, coconut oil, and vanilla extract until well blended. Add the agave mixture to the quinoa mixture and stir until well coated.

  • 13. SPRING 2015 CDF INSIGHT • 13 Y ou have been diagnosed with celiac disease, or you have been told you are gluten intolerant. You are committed to removing every bit of gluten from your diet, but what about products such as prescription or over the counter (non-prescription) medications? Should you be concerned? The true chances of getting a medication that contains gluten is extremely small, but as a protector of your health, you should eliminate all risks by evaluating the ingredients in your medications. Oral medications in the form of tablets and capsules are a potential source of gluten contamination. Medications are composed of many ingredients, both inside and outside of the product. These ingredients, also known as excipients, include the active component, absorbents (which absorb water to allow the tablet to swell and disintegrate), protectants, binders, coloring agents, lubricators, and bulking agents (which allow some products to dissolve slowly as they travel throughout the intestinal tract). Excipients can be synthetic or from natural sources that are derived from either plants or animals. Excipients are considered inactive and safe for human use by the FDA, but can be a potential source for unwanted reactions. Database Search for Ingredient Source One common excipient is starch. The most common type of starch used is from corn; however, starches derived from potato, tapioca, and wheat are also used. A recent search of medications listed on a National Library of Medicine database, managed in conjunction with the National Institute of Health, showed that there were 8,379 individual products or dosage forms that contained the word“starch.”Searching specifically for the word“corn”reveals 6,518 records,“potato”reveals 2,934 records, “tapioca”reveals 17 records, while the word “wheat”reveals 11 records. The total adds up to more than the 8,379 records because many products have more than one starch contained within the product. This database is called Pillbox, and can be accessed at http://pillbox.nlm.nih.gov/ pillimage/search.php. A second database, maintained by the same government organization, lists a total of 70,776 drug records; however, not all of the records have been categorized allowing a full search of a drug product based on their ingredients. This database is called DailyMed, and can be accessed at http:// dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/index.cfm. Both of these sites are extremely helpful in determining the potential for gluten contamination. ProtectingYourself From Possible Gluten in Medication Currently, there is no law that mandates that the drug manufacturers disclose the source of these excipients in any public record or database, and we have to rely on calling the manufacturer to obtain information. Anybody who has ever done this knows how difficult it is to obtain accurate information. Some drug companies are very open with their information, while others either give incomplete or even false information. Often, you are told that the company does not use any gluten in the manufacturing of their product, but they won’t guarantee it to be gluten-free. As a consumer, how do you protect yourself when trying to obtain information regarding the gluten status of a drug when the information you are receiving is either incomplete or questionable? By looking at the excipients, you can get a pretty clear picture of the potential for contamination. As mentioned earlier, the most likely source of gluten contamination will come from starch. It is highly unlikely that any excipient other than starch will contain any measurable amount of gluten. When the excipient listed for the product contains the single word “starch,”it can come from any starch source. Unlike in the food industry where plain starch must be derived from corn, this does not apply to the pharmaceutical industry. A second type of starch is pre-gelatinized starch. This is primarily derived from corn, but it can be derived from any source. A third type of starch is sodium starch glycolate. This is primarily derived from potato, but occasionally is derived from corn. Like pre- gelatinized starch, sodium starch glycolate can be derived from any starch source. Often times, the ingredients are actually listed as corn starch, which makes it easy to identify the source. Finally, there is the rare occasion when you see the dreadful words“wheat starch.”By using the two FDA websites mentioned above, you can frequently find the source of the starch. Using the information provided above, you can make an educated decision to take that product or look for a substitute. If you are told by the company that they do use gluten in their product, ask them to disclose what the source of the gluten is. If they tell you they use wheat starch, naturally you would avoid using the product. If they tell you it is derived from a wheat source, the chances are that they are referring to one of the sugar alcohols, also known as polyols.These are highly processed sugars that contain no wheat gluten, and therefore cannot cause a reaction. Examples of these sugar alcohols are mannitol, sorbitol, sorbitan, maltitol, xylitol, lactitol, erythritol, and hydrogenated starch hydrolysates. Another misrepresented ingredient is wheat maltodextran, or plain maltodextran. Cross-Contamination Risk in Manufacturing A drug company may tell you that they won’t guarantee their product to be gluten-free due to the potential of cross contamination in their manufacturing plant. Although this is a possibility, it would be extremely unlikely to occur due to the level of air quality control the manufacturing plants must have in place for the FDA to allow drugs to be manufactured in their facility.

  • 15. SPRING 2015 CDF INSIGHT • 15 T he experience of health in my family is somewhat of a dichotomous one. I was, ostensibly, born healthy, to relatively healthy parents. My brother, two years my junior, was born with eczema and acne, was colicky, and had allergies and asthma that sent him to the hospital many times in his youth. To everyone’s great delight, he always emerged unscathed and life moved forward. I suppose the first sign of trouble was around puberty for me. I was a very active young professional horseback rider, and I had a career in it until my allergies suddenly presented with the same severity my brother’s had at birth. My asthma was crippling, and I experienced profound mood changes. The contrast was stark: my brother, once unhealthy, was strong, while I was in for rounds of tests after years of being perfectly and robustly healthy. I finished high school well, went to Duke University, and there began to have problems again. I was experiencing seemingly random weight gain, brain fog, reoccurrence of asthma and allergic symptoms, and was constantly tired. At the inception of my celiac symptoms, I thought I was experiencing relatively normal responses to college: drinking beer for the first time en masse, eating pizza at 2:00am, and in general treating my body as disposable. My future husband, Thomas, had been watching my body fall apart for the few months he had known me. I was at the end of my rope; he was at his wit’s end, too. I started hunting around the Internet for solutions, considered autoimmune issues, and finally found the Celiac Disease Foundation website. While Thomas was in class at law school, I checked off a list of symptoms, read stories of confusion and misdiagnoses, and did my own version of CDF’s 7-Day Meal plan. Suddenly, with almost criminal clarity, I knew the answer. Thomas and I scrubbed gluten from our diets, though I knew it would make CD much harder to diagnose. I was feeling so much better: I was losing all of the inflammation weight, my asthma was disappearing, and my mood stabilized. My anxiety attacks evaporated, and I felt like myself for the first time in three years. My husband held me while I cried from relief. In the course of a month, I felt human again. When Thomas and I moved up north to New York, I went back to an old nutritionist, and she ordered a battery of blood tests. I suggested that I had been on the Celiac Disease Foundation website, and that a lot of my issues were on the handy checklist used for a preliminary diagnosis to ask your doctor about. I told her I felt much better now that I had cut gluten out of my life. I remember very clearly that she was skeptical since my symptoms hadn’t presented early in my life, but ordered the tests anyway. She told me that the tests would reveal nothing except genetics, but I wanted proof. My family, despite being health-conscious, was resistant to the idea of CD without hard evidence. The tests showed, ultimately, that I was a heterozygote match for the gene, and my gastroenterologist confirmed diagnosis. CDF has been a guiding light in my experience with CD, as I know they have been for many other otherwise hopeless patients. In a time in my life that I term as the“pea soup fog period,”the information I found from the Foundation cut through. What could have happened had I not found CDF and their bountiful resources about this disease? For one, I know I would have been hospitalized several more times before I found out the truth. I certainly would not have been as healthy as I am now—and I would not have joined Team Gluten- Free’s efforts to spread the health around. About a year after my diagnosis, I found myself having profound cravings for beer. My husband, bless his heart, is a strapping, beer-drinking German, and I watched him enjoy hefeweizens, Oktoberfests, lagers, pumpkin ales, Schwarzbeir; I wanted to cry. So, I resolved to start brewing on my own. After about six months, I thought that I could step it up and actually go into business. Church Owl Beer was born shortly thereafter, and we are now in it for the long haul. Of course, I had to include CDF in my journey: they had so revolutionized my life that I felt I had to give back, at least in some small way. When I found out about Team Gluten-Free, I went to my friends and Agent Provocateur, and swiftly put together an event that would benefit CDF. The focus was on women with the disease and the symptoms they experience, such as infertility, weight gain, and hormonal imbalances, just to name a few. Thus, the Beers and Blazers event was formed. Partygoers would try on fabulous lingerie-inspired outerwear, sample Church Owl Beer’s autumn brew, and 10% of the proceeds would go to CDF. My experience with Team Gluten-Free was nothing short of phenomenal. Several members of the team reached out and sent wonderful informational placards, banners, and take-home sheets for goodie bags (we supplied shot glasses with Church Owl Beer’s logo, and Agent Provocateur gave their signature keychain). I am so happy to say that the event was a total success, bringing together sufferers and supporters alike for a wonderful cause. I have come a very long way since I was diagnosed, and even further from the months leading up to diagnosis. Without the support of Celiac Disease Foundation, I would not, really, be who I am now. Further, I would not have found my calling in the beer industry, and I would not have been able to give back to them in turn. Taylor Grothe My Celiac Disease Story -Taylor Grothe Celiac.org/TGF

  • 17. SPRING 2015 CDF INSIGHT • 17 C eliac disease is an autoimmune disorder that can occur in genetically predisposed people where the ingestion of gluten leads to damage in the small intestine. People with celiac disease are also at higher risk for other autoimmune diseases. Therefore, it is not unreasonable to wonder if the immune system of celiac patients is different in other ways, such as how it responds to vaccinations. For the most part, vaccinations work just as effectively as they do in the general population. There is one notable exception that has been uncovered: hepatitis B. Hepatitis B is a disease that affects the liver. Caused by the hepatitis B virus (HBV), it can be transmitted through blood and other bodily fluids. Hepatitis B can present either chronically (long-term) or acutely (suddenly), but both kinds can be fatal. The disease is present in less than 1% of North Americans, but is still common in sub-Saharan Africa and East Asia. The hepatitis B vaccine has been around since the 1980s and it is one of the safest vaccines available. The World Health Organization suggests vaccinating infants in their first day of life, as well as later on for the full protective effect. Like all vaccines, there is some percentage of people who simply do not respond, and therefore do not develop immunity to the disease. There are many factors that are associated with non-responsiveness, such as smoking habits, age, and obesity. This is one reason, among others, that it is important for as many people as possible to get vaccinated, so that these“non-responders”are protected from the disease through“herd immunity.”When enough people are successfully immunized against a disease, it helps protect people who are still vulnerable by reducing their contact to the disease. Even if someone had no response to a vaccine against a harmful disease, as long as everyone around them was vaccinated, the person won’t ever have the chance to contract the disease; this is herd immunity. In the general population, about 4-10% of people are non-responders. For celiac patients, the hepatitis B vaccine is just as safe, but it is far less effective. In a study published in 2003, Dr. Joseph Murray of the CDF Medical Advisory Board, and other researchers searched through a medical database and found that out of 19 people with celiac disease who also were vaccinated for hepatitis B, 13 did not show an adequate response. Many studies have confirmed that celiac patients have a very high rate of non-response to the hepatitis B vaccine. The exact reason for this phenomenon is most likely genetic, at least in part. Interestingly, a 2007 study in of Hungary found that celiac patients who were already being treated with a gluten-free diet fared much better than those still eating gluten. The paper, titled“Gluten Intake Interferes With the Humoral Immune Response to Recombinant Hepatitis B Vaccine in Patients With Celiac Disease,” monitored blood antibody levels in children to keep track of both celiac disease activity (transglutaminase and endomysium antibodies) and hepatitis B immunity (anti-HBs). The researchers in that study found that not only did the children on a gluten-free diet respond as well as the control group to the hepatitis B vaccine, but children who initially showed no response to the vaccine were able to later develop immunity by going on a gluten-free diet and getting re-vaccinated. The authors also suggest that patients who do not respond to the hepatitis B vaccine be tested for celiac disease. These results were mirrored by another study done in Turkey around the same time in 2010. The group of researchers tested known celiac patients who had been vaccinated for hepatitis B, and found that the rate of non-response was significantly higher in the celiac patients when compared to controls (32.5% versus 14.8% respectively). But in celiac patients who were vaccinated after they were diagnosed and already on a gluten-free diet, the difference in response rate was insignificant. From these studies, it seems that only patients with active and untreated celiac disease are at risk for not responding to the hepatitis B vaccine. Celiac Disease andVaccinations by Saul Geller For people with celiac disease, vaccinations tend to work just as effectively as they do for the general population with one notable exception: hepatitis B. Celiac disease testing is recommended for non-responders to the hepatitis B vaccine who are not already diagnosed. The authors also suggest that patients who do not respond to the hepatitis B vaccine be tested for celiac disease.

The gluten-free diet may improve glycemic control for diabetic patients, although that is still controversial, as some studies support the idea and others suggest there is no difference in glycemic control between normal diabetic patients and diabetic patients with celiac disease on a gluten-free diet. Untreated celiac disease, leading to a damaged small intestine, can increase risk of hypoglycemia because the small intestine may no longer be able to absorb nutrients such as sugars properly, making diagnosis even more imperative. Having one autoimmune disease puts you at greater risk for developing another. To see other symptoms and conditions associated with celiac disease, check out our Symptoms Checklist (celiac.org/checklist), which you can print out and bring to your doctor to help with the diagnosis for you or a loved one.
