    Omission Handcrafted Lager Beer is Real Beer for Real Gluten-Free Beer Lovers
    During college I spent a year and a half living and studying in Tuebingen, Germany. This was before my diagnosis with celiac disease, and it was there that I really learned to know and love beer. After my diagnosis, and around the time I founded this Web site, I spent around two years trying to perfect a gluten-free beer made of sorghum and rice malts. I got close, but it never tasted quite right.
    The same can be said of many of the gluten-free beers that are made without using barley, which, according to Germany's 1516 "Reinheitgebot," or German Beer Purity Law, can't even be called "beer" in Germany.
    Omission Handcrafted Lager Beer, on the other hand, can be called real beer in Germany, as it is made using only traditional beer ingredients: malted barely, hops, yeast and...

    Gluten-free Celebrity News with Gwyneth Paltrow and Taylor Swift
    Celiac.com 07/23/2015 - Gwyneth Paltrow and Taylor Swift anchor this week's gluten-free celebrity news.
    Gwyneth Paltrow is set to launch a new organic gluten-free meal line with her famous trainer, Tracy Anderson. According to People Magazine‎, the new line will be called 3 Green Hearts.
    However, Paltrow's gluten-free foods will not be available in the local grocery stores, but only to visitors at one of her two Hamptons fitness studios. That's right, 3 Green Hearts products will be available in the Hamptons, and only in the Hamptons. So, if you're gluten-free and happen to be on Long Island, by all means, get yourself over to Paltrow's studios for a gluten-free celebrity meal.
    Now, 3 Green Hearts could catch on and grow beyond the Hamptons. Reports by the Daily M...

    Why All the Hate for Gluten-free Celebrities?
    Celiac.com 09/11/2015 - At Celiac.com, we're generally of the opinion that any publicity about celiac disease and gluten sensitivity is good publicity. We've always believed that the less people know about celiac disease, the more those who have it are at risk.

    Undoubtedly gluten-free celebrities are bringing a huge awareness to celiac disease and the gluten-free diet, and this has lead not only to increased awareness of the disease, but also may have directly contributed to lowering the overall risk for those of us who have it by vastly increasing the number of people who are on the gluten-free diet. This has ultimately led to an explosion in the number, variety and availability of gluten-free products. 
    Interestingly, articles about gluten-free celebrities have prompted so...

    Tennis Champ Djokovic Talks Game Changing Gluten-free Diet
    Celiac.com 09/29/2015 - In his new autobiography, world number one tennis player Novak Djokovic opens up about how positive blood screens for gluten antibodies changed his diet, and how his diet changed his career.
    Through 2010, Djokovic had seen some notable late-match collapses, and was even forced to drop out from competitions due to health reasons. Many thought his career in peril.
    He was referred to doctor Igor Cetojevic, M.D, who recommended several tests, including an ELISA test. ELISA is a common test for malaria and HIV, but it can also be used in the determination of food allergies. Djokovic’s ELISA indicated an intolerance to wheat and dairy products.
    The doctor immediately advised Djokovic to change his diet, especially to eliminate high-gluten foods l...
