I am very strict with my gluten free diet after having so much trouble with so many different food categories, and I have recently added casein to that list. I am now thriving on a very low carb ketogenic/carnivore diet, but the one gluten free treat I allow myself is the 24 carrot gold paleo muffins from Muffin Revolution. Dairy free, grain free and gluten free and absolutely delicious! I buy them from Whole Foods but you can also buy them directly from the manufacturer, it's a great company with excellent customer service.

Whole Foods to Shut Gluten-Free Bakery
Celiac.com 01/28/2020 - Whole Foods Market will be closing its main gluten-free bakery for the entire Southern US market, a move that is expected to leave over 100 employees out of a job. The company, Gluten-Free Bakehouse, is set to close on March 8th, according to a Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification filed with the North Carolina Department of Commerce.
How the move will impact the company's supply of gluten-free bakery products remains unclear. The move mainly seems to be a result competition. The company says that the bakery has played a steadily shrinking role in its gluten-free offering over the years.

Desserts Can Actually be Healthy for You
Celiac.com 06/18/2020 - Think about some of the foods that we are told are healthy for us, like those high in fiber (almonds, walnuts, figs, dates, raisins, sesame seeds), fresh berries (raspberries, blackberries, blueberries, strawberries), other fresh fruit (apples, pears, oranges, kiwi, bananas, cherries, melons), dairy products (1% or 2% milk, low fat cheese), and probiotics (yogurt). Each of these ingredients is a prime candidate for use in desserts.
Most of us love desserts. The major offender in anything sweet is sugar. Some people opt to use artificial sugars to avoid the calories of cane or beet sugar, while others vehemently avoid the artificial sweeteners because of their health risks. One teaspoon of granulated sugar has just 16 calories and 4.2 grams of carbohydrates. I...

FDA warns Amazon's Whole Foods Market for Failing to Label Known Allergens
Celiac.com 12/24/2020 - The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) says it has warned Amazon.com’s Whole Foods Market for failing to label some food products for known food allergens. As a result, Whole Foods has recalled over 30 food products in the last year after failing to list major food allergens on product labels, the agency said. Unlabeled food allergens, such as wheat, can pose a health risk for people with celiac disease or other gluten sensitivities. The recalled products came mainly from Whole Foods deli and bakery sections, the FDA letter said.
A list of the products with unlabeled allergens appears on the FDA warning letter to the company, dated 16 December, 2020. According to the letter, it's up to Whole Foods is responsible investigate and assess the causes of the...

  There aren't good studies that have been done on celiac disease remission, and I'm going from a distant memory of an older post here, but the longest remission that Dr. Stefano Guandalini from the University of Chicago Celiac Disease Center has witnessed was ~10 years, then the symptoms of celiac disease and the damage came back. The real issue though, is...

  Scott, could you elaborate on hydrolyzed wheat? Does that remove or deactivate the gluten protein?

  McDonald's has a gluten-free bun, are you in Europe? They don't have that in the USA but I hope they are coming here soon. In the USA the fries are not considered gluten-free, even if they are made in a dedicated fryer, but many celiacs, including myself, have been eating them for years without issues. In Europe they don't have the same hydrolyzed wheat...
