| Ep 312 October 2024 Roundup | 04 Oct 2024 | 00:44:11 | |
I’m again speaking with Ellen Bayens of theceliacscene.com to go over some of the articles she has brought to our attention over the past month and allow me to give my opinions and insight. Sometimes we come across a company that is doing their best to meet our gluten free needs, but may not have the foundational knowledge of the gluten free diet to do so. This was the case with a storefront that sold ice cream and offered their on-site made gluten free cones. Ellen was able to speak with the owner regarding the questionable safety of the cones and now the company is better informed and able to let their celiac customers know they cannot guarantee the cones to be gluten free. Their understanding and current transparency is a plus for us. Ellen also made us aware of a manufacturing change at Prana Foods to no longer offer gluten free oats in their products. There is somewhat of a disconnect between producers and consumers in getting this important information out there. We hear an update on story Ellen and I spoke about in August 2022 when I interviewed author Ann Campanella. Recently Ann has won an award for her book Celiac Mom. You can listen to the original conversation at - https://bit.ly/Ep233CeliacMom. Ellen has discovered a new cookie/dessert jar business that is gluten free and also vegan, so dairy and egg free as well. The special news here is that the products are very decadent and can be shipped across Canada – so if you want to send a tasty gift to someone this might be a good bet!

| Ep 311 Coaching Through the Gluten Free Diet | 18 Sep 2024 | 00:41:04 | |
On this episode I speak with Kristin Longacre about her experiences initially when her son was diagnosed with food sensitivities and later when she herself was diagnosed with Celiac Disease. Living in the US, Kristin found only minimal resources to help her understand the gluten free diet. After struggling to eat gluten free Kristin decided to become a Certified Holistic Nutrition Coach specializing in helping others to master both the gluten free diet and lifestyle. You can find out more about Kristin and how she helps others on her website www.kristinlongacre.com Sue’s Websites and Social Media – Podcast https://acanadianceliacpodcast.libsyn.com Podcast Blog – https://www.acanadianceliacblog.com Email – acdnceliacpodcast@gmail.com Celiac Kid Stuff – https://www.celiackidstuff.com Baking Website – https://www.suesglutenfreebaking.com Instagram - @suesgfbaking YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUVGfpD4eJwwSc_YjkGagza06yYe3ApzL Email – sue@suesglutenfreebaking.com | |||
| Ep 302 May 2024 Roundup | 01 May 2024 | 00:39:03 | |
After taking some time off to recuperate from knee surgery, I’m back speaking with Ellen Bayens of theceliacscene.com for the beginning of May to review some of the articles she brought to our attention over the past month. If you’re interested in the Irish Tour, best make your inquiry quickly, as spots are limited – check out the link below. Ellen and I spoke about an article written by a reporter in upstate New York regarding his experience eating gluten free in local restaurants. I found he was able to thread together a story that many of us can relate to – but he was able to articulate it so much better than I can. Ellen shared with us the story of a home-based bakery on Vancouver Island with a difference. She also shares some great photos of his creations. Staying on the food theme, Ellen has provided us a link to a free recipe booklet from Corn Thins – I didn’t realize they were so versatile! • Take a Gluten-Free Tour of the Emerald Isle SELENA RD, INSTAGRAM CORNER - celiac_dietitian • Celiac Dietitian at Your Finger Tips - Tuesday Q & A Sue’s Websites and Social Media – Podcast https://acanadianceliacpodcast.libsyn.com Podcast Blog – https://www.acanadianceliacblog.com Email – acdnceliacpodcast@gmail.com Celiac Kid Stuff – https://www.celiackidstuff.com Baking Website – https://www.suesglutenfreebaking.com Instagram - @suesgfbaking YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUVGfpD4eJwwSc_YjkGagza06yYe3ApzL Email – sue@suesglutenfreebaking.com Other Podcast – Gluten Free Weigh In – https://glutenfreeweighin.libsyn.com | |||
| Ep 212 March 2022 Roundup | 02 Mar 2022 | 00:59:58 | |
Ellen Bayens of theceliacscene.com has given us some great articles to look at this month. Somehow, she found an article written on the issues of cross contamination in restaurants in Malta. It’s amazing to see that celiacs in another part of the world with a very diverse cuisine from ours have the same issues ordering food in restaurants. As well there is an interesting study that was done recently looking at the blood tests done with children and how indicative they are of a final diagnosis of celiac disease. The aim of this study is to identify a benchmark level for blood tests that would indicate a biopsy for a child is not necessary. We discuss the curious issue of Novak Djokovic, the international tennis star who has publicly said that he is on a gluten free diet for his health. There is more behind this story, and much of it will leave you with more questions than answers. Are you familiar with the FODMAP diet? Ellen explains the premise of the diet and how it is being used by some celiacs who are struggling to gain remission from their symptoms. In Episode 93 of this podcast, I interviewed Steven J. Singer, who runs Fody Foods, helping those who are using the diet as a tool towards better health. Ellen gives us more information on how you can post questions on Instagram for Selena DeVries @celiac_dietitian. As well Selena offers a focused Facebook group for those with persistent symptoms, along with courses and assistance on her website www.healthbean.ca. Ellen and I go on to speak about food including the Taco Revolution foodtruck, Trumps Foods Hazelnut Torte on Amazon.ca, the Everyday Gluten Free Gourmet online cooking classes and Stella’s Perogies, which my daughter recently found in Ontario at a Metro store.

| Ep 211 Food Bullying and the Gluten Free Diet | 23 Feb 2022 | 00:36:01 | |
The topic of food bullying is a broad one and means different things to different people. To help me tackle with subject, I invited Nicole Byrom, Registered Dietitian with the Canadian Celiac Association to discuss food bullying in the context of the gluten free diet. The act of making someone feel bad for the food they are eating often comes from a place of ignorance about celiac disease and non-celiac gluten sensitivity. Education can be a key factor in your response to a food bully, but issues get more complicated depending on who is the being bullied and who the bully is. Children often face negative comments on their food when away from home and adults often have negative interactions with family members, or they are seen as being needy and high maintenance. Nicole is able to put food bullying in perspective with tips and strategies to empower you or your chid. Nicole gave us her email, Nicole.Byrom@celiac.ca, if you have any suggestions for issues you are facing that the CCA may be able to help with.

| Ep 210 The Big Gluten Free Pizza Episode | 16 Feb 2022 | 01:02:16 | |
This episode is a fun and informative conversation with two of my friends about Gluten Free Pizza. Fortunately, my friends Ellen Bayens (theceliacscene.com) and Cinde Little (everydayglutenfreegourmet.ca) are experts when it comes to ordering pizza in a restaurant and making pizza in your home kitchen. Ellen gives us some great tips on the questions you need to ask to ensure your gluten free pizza is safe to eat in a restaurant. As well, she gives us some information you can use to decide if ordering a takeout pizza is safe for you. Here is the link to Ellen’s list of questions to ask and the Gluten Free Pizza restaurant she spoke about – Cinde and I talk about some of the options available to you if you want to make a gluten free pizza at home. There are premade pizza crusts, pizza dough and dough mixes. Although each of these options may be gluten free, the best gluten free pizza crust will likely come after experimenting with different yeast-based crust recipes. Techniques are very different from wheat pizzas and can often be best learned from a baking class. Whether you’re baking your pizza in a very hot oven, on a pizza stone or steel, or on an outdoor barbeque, Cinde gives us lots of tips to make your best gluten free pizza. You may want to join one of Cinde’s baking classes to gain some confidence and set you up for success with gluten free pizza. Cinde’s Class Calendar - https://everydayglutenfreegourmet.ca/class-calendar-2/ Cinde’s Information on Flour Blends - https://everydayglutenfreegourmet.ca/recipe/gluten-free-flour-mix/ I mentioned my Gluten Free Cauliflower Pizza crust and you can see the video along with the ingredient list at the following link - https://bit.ly/GFCauliflowerPizza Sue’s Websites and Social Media – Podcast https://acanadianceliacpodcast.libsyn.com Podcast Blog – https://www.acanadianceliacblog.com Email – acdnceliacpodcast@gmail.com Celiac Kid Stuff – https://www.celiackidstuff.com Baking Website – https://www.suesglutenfreebaking.com Instagram - @suesgfbaking YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUVGfpD4eJwwSc_YjkGagza06yYe3ApzL Email – sue@suesglutenfreebaking.com Other Podcast – Gluten Free Weigh In – https://glutenfreeweighin.libsyn.com | |||
| Episode 209 Discovering Nairn's Gluten Free | 09 Feb 2022 | 00:38:05 | |
I had the pleasure of speaking with Maria and Emma about Nairn’s Gluten Free Products imported from Scotland. Maria is the importer/distributor and Emma is the Brand Manager in the UK. Maria clarifies the requirements of importing a product and ensuring the packaging and labelling meets Canadian standards. Emma fills us in on the long history of oats in Scotland, as well as the origins of the Nairn’s bakery. She details how and why Nairn’s started their gluten free product line, as well as how they source oats and test for gluten. You can follow Nairn’s on Instagram @nairns_canada, and on Facebook at Nairn’s Oat Crackers Canada. Recipes can be found on the UK website at nairns.com/recipes. You can purchase Nairn’s products at some of the large grocery chains in Canada and online at www.well.ca. More recipe ideas can be found in the CCA 2021 Holiday Survival Guide – download your copy at https://www.celiac.ca/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/2021-CCA-Holiday-Guide.pdf For more information on what makes an oat gluten free, read the CCA Position Statement on Oats at - https://www.celiac.ca/living-gluten-free/oats-statement/ Sue’s Websites and Social Media – Podcast https://acanadianceliacpodcast.libsyn.com Podcast Blog – https://www.acanadianceliacblog.com Email – acdnceliacpodcast@gmail.com Celiac Kid Stuff – https://www.celiackidstuff.com Baking Website – https://www.suesglutenfreebaking.com Instagram - @suesgfbaking YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUVGfpD4eJwwSc_YjkGagza06yYe3ApzL Email – sue@suesglutenfreebaking.com Other Podcast – Gluten Free Weigh In – https://glutenfreeweighin.libsyn.com | |||
| Ep 208 February 2022 Roundup | 02 Feb 2022 | 01:03:52 | |
It’s the beginning of February, so that may mean Groundhog Day to some, but to me it means a lively conversation with Ellen Bayens of www.theceliacscene.com. Ellen and I talk about a study looking at a link between atopic dermatitis and celiac disease, along with a publication of a report on increasing prices for gluten free in the UK. We also look at a paper from Turkey about the common myths surrounding celiac disease – most are universal. Ellen brings to my attention that Earth’s Own Oat Beverage will no longer be gluten free and we explore the why’s and how’s of that happening. Ellen highlights a couple of my recent podcasts Ep 207 about Suki the Gluten Detection Dog as well as my Gluten Free Weigh In episodes with Aaron. Every Tuesday, Selena Devries answers questions on her Instagram Story (@celiac_dietitian), but I never knew how to send her a question. Ellen walks us through the process, which is simple, but unless I was ready to do it, wouldn’t have explored. Here are the links to the topics Ellen and I spoke about.

| Ep 207 Suki The Gluten Detection Dog | 26 Jan 2022 | 00:52:29 | |
On this episode I speak with Kendra, the human who trained Suki to be a Gluten Detection Dog. Kendra speaks about how Suki was trained to alert her if any food, drink or medication contains gluten. Kendra trained Suki during Covid, and although Suki is ready to accompany Kendra into restaurants, stores and on public transportation, the training is ongoing. Kendra takes us through some of the interesting instances when Suki was able to detect very small amounts of gluten, which Kendra would not have been able to detect from ingredient lists. I preface and follow up my conversation with Kendra with some general information on working dogs, that you, like me, may not have been aware of. I’m looking forward to a follow-up conversation with Kendra, so if you have any questions for her, please email me at acdnceliacpodcast@gmail.com You can follow Suki on Instagram at @sukipwd Kendra also mentioned her trainer, the website is www.crescentservicedogs.com

| Ep 206 CCA Dietitians and The New Labelling Guide | 19 Jan 2022 | 00:43:43 | |
On this episode I’m speaking with Nicole Byrom RD, and Caleigh McAulay, dietitians with the Canadian Celiac Association. At the CCA’s recent virtual conference, Nicole and Caleigh presented the new CCA Labelling Guide, which, although there have not been new regulations on gluten labelling, clarifies many of the questions Nicole and Caleigh regularly receive. We talk about the term “may contain” and levels of risk involved in certain labelling terminology used in Canada. You can access their presentation and print out the guide at - https://www.celiac.ca/living-gluten-free/food-labelling/ https://www.celiac.ca/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/CCA-Labelling-Document-OCT21-1027_1-3.pdf As well, Caleigh spoke to me about the CCA’s Gluten Free Product Finder, which lists all the foods bearing the gluten free certification from the CCA. https://www.celiac.ca/living-gluten-free/gf-product-finder/ There is a new app for your phone which will replace the pocket dictionary from CCA to determine if an ingredient is gluten free. One question that is often asked of both Nicole and Caleigh is about eating out or ordering food for delivery. This subject was well covered by Ellen Bayens of http://www.theceliacscene.com during the recent conference and you can view her presentation at - Sue’s Websites and Social Media – Podcast https://acanadianceliacpodcast.libsyn.com Podcast Blog – https://www.acanadianceliacblog.com Email – acdnceliacpodcast@gmail.com Celiac Kid Stuff – https://www.celiackidstuff.com Baking Website – https://www.suesglutenfreebaking.com Instagram - @suesgfbaking YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUVGfpD4eJwwSc_YjkGagza06yYe3ApzL Email – sue@suesglutenfreebaking.com Other Podcast – Gluten Free Weigh In – https://glutenfreeweighin.libsyn.com | |||
| Ep 205 New Year, Healthier Gluten Free | 12 Jan 2022 | 00:43:25 | |
The beginning of a new year is often an opportunity for many of us to re-evaluate what we are eating, and take some time to re-set. I invited Cinde Little the everydayglutenfreegourmet.ca on the podcast to give me some ideas of ways to add more variety, and flavour into my gluten free diet. Cinde is well known for her recipes blending the flavours of different ethnic cuisines that focus on healthy ingredients. Here are links to some of the recipes we talked about - Buddha Bowl - https://www.everydayglutenfreegourmet.ca/fw-recipe-slug/buddha-bowl/ Tandoori Chicken - https://www.everydayglutenfreegourmet.ca/fw-recipe-slug/gluten-free-tandoori-chicken/ Zucchini Noodles with Cherry Tomatoes - https://everydayglutenfreegourmet.ca/recipe/zucchini-noodles-with-cherry-tomatoes/ Recipe Round Up of Homemade Soups - https://www.everydayglutenfreegourmet.ca/round-up-of-homemade-soups/ Or this one you mentioned Noodle Soup with Peanut Sauce - https://www.everydayglutenfreegourmet.ca/fw-recipe-slug/gluten-free-noodle-soup-with-peanut-sauce/ Sue’s Websites and Social Media – Podcast https://acanadianceliacpodcast.libsyn.com Podcast Blog – https://www.acanadianceliacblog.com Email – acdnceliacpodcast@gmail.com Celiac Kid Stuff – https://www.celiackidstuff.com Baking Website – https://www.suesglutenfreebaking.com Instagram - @suesgfbaking YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUVGfpD4eJwwSc_YjkGagza06yYe3ApzL Email – sue@suesglutenfreebaking.com Other Podcast – Gluten Free Weigh In – https://glutenfreeweighin.libsyn.com | |||
| Ep 204 January 2022 Roundup | 05 Jan 2022 | 01:07:44 | |
It’s not only the beginning of a new month, it’s the beginning of a new year. What better way to start the year than an engaging conversation with Ellen Bayens of www.theceliacscene.com. Ellen and I discussed two recent studies - Celiacs Infected with COVID-19 at No Greater Risk of Complications Are Celiac Disease & Inflammatory Bowel Disease Linked? Ellen posed a question regarding the holidays to her Facebook group – https://www.facebook.com/theceliacscene/posts/10161452534353012 We talked about Stella’s Perogies being available at Walmart in Canada - bit.ly/StellasGFPerogies For more information on the restaurant we spoke about that was wrongly claiming to be endorsed by Ellen and The Celiac Scene, please see the Facebook post at - https://www.facebook.com/theceliacscene/posts/10161448068918012 You can listen to Aaron’s recent episode 169 of Gluten Free Weigh In on any podcast app or on the podcast website - glutenfreeweighin.libsyn.com I spoke about the new blue adult wristbands soon to be available on the website www.celiackidstuff.com.

| Ep 203 Catch Up with the CCA | 15 Dec 2021 | 00:39:15 | |
On this episode I speak with Melissa Secord, Executive Director of the Canadian Celiac Association to bring us up to date on recent relevant news items. We look more into how the CCA worked with the Ontario government to inform the Ministry of Health about the advantages of covering the cost of the celiac blood panel for the purpose of diagnosis, and the pilot program that has come from those efforts. Recently, a story about a celiac woman held in travel quarantine made the national news as she was denied a gluten free meal for 40 hours. The CCA got involved to help the woman and bring more awareness of this unacceptable situation. Melissa and I also talked about the labelling of “natural” products, including supplements, and natural treatments. Until now, these products did not require labelling that would identify sources of gluten and recently, the CCA has been working with Health Canada to change the regulations. You can find out more at www.celiac.ca/news-events/news/.

| Ep 301 April 2024 Roundup | 03 Apr 2024 | 00:58:48 | |
It’s the beginning of April, which for me means that I get to chat with my friend Ellen Bayens of theceliacscene.com about interesting articles and studies she has brought to our attention over the past month. I had to record with Ellen prior to end of the March as I was preparing for knee surgery. Ellen kept posting and you can keep up with her work by subscribing to her monthly newsletter through her website. Ellen and I both had copies of the recent booklet produced by Celiac Canada with the preliminary results from their recent survey. There is so much information in these numbers and the analysts have only scratched the surface. You can read these initial results or download the booklet at celiac.ca. Both Ellen and I felt my recent conversation with Linda Sills regarding retirement and long-term care for her celiac mother was concerning and something we should all be concerned about for our families and ourselves. Ellen mentioned a previous a podcast I recorded with Mike Rose about choosing safe retirement living – you can listen at - https://acanadianceliacpodcast.libsyn.com/ep-168-retirement-living-gluten-free. As well Ellen wrote an article about Mike which you can read here - https://theceliacscene.com/celiac-crusader-tackles-challenges-residential-living/ Ellen told us about a new online mentoring program for kids and teens that is being started – you can find out more here - Introducing Celiac Chat - An Online Mentorship Program for Kid & Teens and hopefully I will speak with Avery for a podcast in the near future. Villous atrophy is a term that many of us know from our diagnosis, but Ellen was able to show me an article that listed other conditions that may cause villous atrophy – and here I was thinking it was unique to Celiac Disease. Other Conditions that May Cause Villous Atrophy On a social media note Ellen told us of a situation at a local restaurant in Victoria that recently decided to remove a popular gluten free item from their menu. This was of course unfortunate, but the negative comments on social media that ensued were somewhat over-the-top. Ellen and I comment on the issues. I mention that I recently attended a virtual class from Cinde, the everydayglutenfreegourmet.ca. I highly recommend these classes as we can all learn to make more gluten free options.

| Ep 202 CCA Holiday Guide 2021 | 08 Dec 2021 | 00:30:26 | |
The Canadian Celiac Association has once again produced a Holiday Guide with great recipes and tips to help us cope with our festive holidays in a Gluten Free safe way. Nicole Byrom RD, from the CCA goes through the different articles in the guide and I’m able to tease out a little information from each section. If you are not already on the CCA mailing list, you can download a copy of the guide at – https://www.celiac.ca/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/2021-CCA-Holiday-Guide.pdf

It’s finally here – Episode 200 of the Podcast. As promised, I have handed over the podcast to Ellen Bayens of theceliacscene.com to ask me questions, which I didn’t know in advance. This is by far the longest episode of the A Canadian Celiac Podcast. Ellen went out of her way to contact many interesting guests from past episodes to solicit questions and comments. I am humbled by their input and Ellen’s efforts. Thank You to all who participated.

| Ep 199 Gluten Free Blogger to Author | 17 Nov 2021 | 00:36:24 | |
On this episode I have the pleasure of speaking with Taleen Benson blogger and cookbook author. Taleen started her blog after her husband was diagnosed with a condition that required a gluten free, egg free diet. Taleen has a loyal following for her blog called “Just As Tasty”, and she was encouraged to write a cookbook of gluten free, egg free recipes. The book, called “Just as Tasty, Gluten-free and Eggless Baking Through the Seasons” is available for purchase on Amazon. Taleen explained the process of writing her own cookbook as well as having it available with Amazon print on demand. She was kind enough to send along her recipe for Molasses Cookies Makes about 18 cookies 1 ¾ cups (259g) gluten-free flour blend 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon cinnamon ½ teaspoon ginger ½ teaspoon fine sea salt ½ cup (113g) unsalted butter, room temperature ⅔ cup (133g) light brown sugar, packed ⅓ cup (113g) unsulphured molasses 1 tablespoon Bob’s Red Mill Egg Replacer, mixed with 2 tbsp water ½ teaspoon vanilla extract ¼ cup (50g) granulated sugar, for rolling

| Ep 198 Flax and the Gluten Free Diet with Valley Flax Flour | 10 Nov 2021 | 00:46:41 | |
On this episode I chat with Howard Selig who is not only a Registered Dietitian, but a trained chef. After recognizing the nutritional benefits of adding flax in the preparation of some foods for residents of a care home, Howard branched out filling the needs of other care homes by grinding flax seeds for them. Providing flax in different forms to others soon became a business. Howard explains the many nutritional advantages of flax and how it can be a benefit to the gluten free diet. With his baking skills, Howard decided to formulate a flour mix, gluten free of course, along with baking mixes (the one for bread just needs you to add water!). Salene Pyke works with Howard and she explained what products they sell and how to get free shipping. You can find out more on their website at www.flaxflour.com .

| Ep 197 November 2021 Roundup | 03 Nov 2021 | 01:02:18 | |
It’s the beginning of the month, which means I have the pleasure of chatting with Ellen Bayens of theceliacscene.com. Here’s some of the topics we covered – There has been very positive feedback on the stickers and wristbands available through www.celiackidstuff.com. The 200th episode of the podcast is coming up, and we’re turning the tables, so Ellen is asking me questions. You can send your questions, or videos (we’ll only use the audio) to ellen@theceliacscene.com. We shine a light on a gluten free bakery in Winnipeg calls Cocoabeans. They have recently released four mixes that you can easily make at home – there’s even videos for any of you who might be baking novices. Introducing Cocoabeans Gourmet Gluten-Free Mixes The Canadian Celiac Association is hosting another great virtual conference this year on November 13th and 14th. The 13th (Saturday) is aimed towards those who have been diagnosed less than two years, whereas the program on the 14th (Sunday) is more indepth for those who have been gluten free for more than two years (anyone can sign up for either). The conference is free of charge, but you are asked to give a contribution towards costs if you can. If you are new to gluten free, or need a refresher, Cinde Little, the Everyday Gluten Free Gourmet has a new course called Healthy Me focusing on managing a healthy gluten free lifestyle. Find out more at New to Gluten Free? Ellen talks about a food labelling study looking at accuracy regarding allergens Accuracy in Food Labelling a Concern for the Allergic and a study that looks at issues celiacs encounter while dating Celiacs Who Date Report Anxiety and Admit to Taking Risks When Dining Out I mention a little bit about my new co-host on my other podcast Gluten Free Weigh In . In early December I will be introducing a male co-host who has just been diagnosed with celiac disease and is involved in a program awaiting bariatric surgery. His story will be so interesting. As well, Ellen and I talk about restaurants – some on her list are –

| Ep 196 The UnBun Story | 27 Oct 2021 | 00:39:22 | |
On this episode I speak with a man who identified a void in the gluten free marketplace – that of a healthy, good tasting hamburger bun. Gus Klemos tells us his why, and more importantly his how he came up with a completely newly formulated gluten free bread that he named UnBun. Gus is from Toronto and in a few short years from very humble beginnings, with a great deal of work, UnBun is now selling across both Canada and the US. Gus discusses what makes his bread products different, and it makes us think about what benefits we are all looking for from our bread. You can likely find UnBun products in not only your supermarket, but as staples in your fast food outlets.

| Ep 195 Catching Up with Nicole Byrom RD | 20 Oct 2021 | 00:40:17 | |
It’s great for me to have returning guests on the podcast. Nicole Byrom RD, works with the Canadian Celiac Association as the Health Promotions Manager. When I contacted her about coming back on the podcast, she had a list of things she wanted to inform listeners about. The topic of arsenic in our food comes up often. Nicole tells us why this is important to the celiac population and some ways to reduce arsenic exposure. Nicole is involved in an upcoming webinar about Type I Diabetes and its relation to celiac disease. There is a link below for more information on the webinar.
Since this is October, the topic of Halloween candy came up. We both discussed how our celiac daughters were able to make the best of what could be a difficult situation. Below is a link to the list of safe Halloween candy from the CCA. Nicole filled us in on the growing practice of setting out “teal pumpkins” to signify that the house has non-food or allergen friendly treats to give away.
Nicole told us of the upcoming publications from the CCA as well she reminded us of the CCA Virtual Conference to be held on November 13th and 14th. Below are links to sign up for the virtual conference, as well as to be on the email list for CCA publications. It’s not too late donate to the teams from the CCA across the country running in the Scotiabank Run, as per the link below. Nicole suggests you donate to her team BC CCA, as there is a bit of a competition going on.

| Ep 194 Finding a Restaurant Solution After a Long Diagnosis Journey | 13 Oct 2021 | 00:44:28 | |
Everyone has a diagnosis story, and I enjoy listening to and sharing many or them. This episode of the podcast is a conversation with Beau Bristow of Nashville TN. Beau was diagnosed as an adult and had a long list of symptoms, which to him were unrelated. Of particular note, was the brain fog, which by reason of the name, you don’t realize at the time, and only once the fog has lifted do you understand what you were missing. Finding suitable restaurants is a pain point for most of us, but in Beau’s case, he was determined to help solve this problem, not only for those of us on a gluten free diet, but for people suffering from other allergies. The approach of the website https://picknic.app/ is to help someone requiring a special diet to find a restaurant that understands and follows suitable procedures for you to eat safely. You can signup on the website to receive new information. The website will soon be an app, to be downloaded, but at the moment it is focusing mostly in the Nashville area to get it right – how to onboard restaurants and the rate them as a “pick” for your special diet or not. Beau has also asked for feedback from those on a gluten free diet and you can reach him at info@picknic.app. You can also find Picknic on Facebook and Instagram @gopicknic.

| Ep 193 What's All the Fuss About Pumpkin Spice with Cinde Little | 06 Oct 2021 | 00:42:21 | |
For many people September and October are not as much about Autumn as they are about pumpkin spice everything. Being a baker, this has always interested me, but I have to say, except for pumpkin pie, I had pretty much stayed away. Cinde Little, of the Everyday Gluten Free Gourmet was the best person to get me up to speed on pumpkin spice – is it gluten free? what do we have to look out for? where should we expect to find it? and can we use it at home in baking or drinks? Cinde sent along a photo of her favourite Pumpkin Date Cake, which looks very yummy and you can find the recipe on her blog. As well, she had a work in progress for a pumpkin spice syrup to use at home. I’ve played with what she had, and have given a recipe below, so you can make your own special café drinks at home. After recording with Cinde, I did go out and buy a couple of pie pumpkins. You can see photos and read what I did with them on Episode #193 of my blog www.acanadianceliacblog.com. You can find Cinde at www.everydayglutenfreegourmet.ca.
Homemade Pumpkin Spice Syrup for Café Drinks 1 ½ cups water 1 ½ cups sugar Spices – 1 ½ tsp ground cinnamon, 1 tsp ground cloves, 1 tsp ground ginger, 2 tsp ground nutmeg 1/3 – ½ cup pumpkin puree ½ tsp vanilla extract (optional) Place water and sugar in a saucepan on medium heat. As the mixture heats, add the spices and stir well. Add pumpkin puree depending on your preference – the 1/3 cup will be a mild flavour and the ½ cup will be more pronounced. Heat liquid to simmering. Continue simmer for 5-10 minutes, watching it doesn’t boil over. Remove from heat. Add vanilla extract (optional), which will give a somewhat richer taste. Let mixture cool for 5 minutes. If your pumpkin puree is still a bit lumpy you can use an immersion blender to smooth out the liquid. Pour syrup through a sieve to remove any larger bits of the spice blend or pumpkin. Store in a squirt container or bottle in refrigerator.

| Ep 300 More from the State of Celiac | 20 Mar 2024 | 00:59:08 | |
This episode is a follow up to Episode 298 when I attended an event called The State of Celiac Disease in Canada during the last week of February. Celiac Canada held the event to present the preliminary results of the recent national survey. During the event, Melissa Secord the Executive Director of Celiac Canada spoke. I had more questions for Melissa, so I invited her on to this episode of the Podcast. Now that the preliminary results of the survey were being evaluated, I wanted to know more about what the results meant to Celiac Canada, and how they were going to use what they were learning to advance their efforts on our behalf. Also, at the event in February, a woman by the name of Linda Sills took to the podium to tell her family’s story of dealing with care homes for her elderly mother. Linda gave an emotional talk, and again, there was more I wanted to know. The prospect of choosing a long-term care home for a loved one or yourself, is daunting, but unfortunately, for many of us, it’s a fact of life. I was grateful that Linda trusted me with her moving story and allowed me to dig a bit deeper into how and why. This was a powerful conversation, and one you may want to refer for others to listen to. Thanks Linda, for sharing in such a personal way. You can download the survey presentation booklet and view some of the highlights on Celiac Canada’s website at - https://www.celiac.ca/state-of-celiac/ You can also watch The State of Celiac Disease in Canada presentation that was live on YouTube at - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I__T36eeNd8&ab_channel=CeliacCanada Celiac Canada has an extensive library of videos and presentations on YouTube that answer many of the questions you might have about celiac disease and the gluten free diet – and don’t forget to subscribe to the channel while you’re there. https://www.youtube.com/c/CanadianCeliacAssociation Sue’s Websites and Social Media – Podcast https://acanadianceliacpodcast.libsyn.com Podcast Blog – https://www.acanadianceliacblog.com Email – acdnceliacpodcast@gmail.com Celiac Kid Stuff – https://www.celiackidstuff.com Baking Website – https://www.suesglutenfreebaking.com Instagram - @suesgfbaking YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUVGfpD4eJwwSc_YjkGagza06yYe3ApzL Email – sue@suesglutenfreebaking.com Other Podcast – Gluten Free Weigh In – https://glutenfreeweighin.libsyn.com | |||
| Ep 192 October 2021 Roundup | 29 Sep 2021 | 00:53:00 | |
It’s the beginning of the month again, so I get the pleasure of speaking to Ellen Bayens of theceliacscene.com about some of the topics of interest that have come up during the past month. We discuss the diagnosis story of the family of a Neonatologist in the US who sought out the team at the Celiac Disease Program at Boston Children’s Hospital for help. Ellen and I discuss how comprehensive the whole family approach to treating and further diagnosing family members is. See the link below to the article about this family’s journey. Ellen and I go on to look at some of the feedback we’ve had about the stickers and wristbands from www.celiackidstuff.com and how families can use these tools to help their kids eat safely. The silicone wristbands for kids which say – I’m a Celiac Kid I Can’t Eat Gluten – are now being made available for gluten free bakeries to sell directly. If you know of a bakery that might be interested in offering the wristbands, please let me know and I can reach out to them. Ellen and I speak about bagels and doughnuts – I’ve ever the purest, but explain to her why fried doughnuts are rare. Also, below is my recipe for Gluten Free Doughnut Holes. In the previous episode of the podcast, I recorded a discussion with my adult daughter Deanna, about our differing attitudes towards celiac disease and the gluten free diet. I am grateful for the opportunity to have these discussions as I suspect that much the same dynamic is going on in other families with multi-generational celiac disease. Also, at the end of that podcast, Episode 191, I included a short “blooper reel” which Ellen refers to and gives a classic insight into mother/daughter interactions. Episode 200 of the podcast is approaching, and I’ve decided to mark that milestone with a special episode allowing Ellen and my audience to ask me questions. If you have a question, or comment you’d like Ellen to pose or discuss with me, please email her at ellen@theceliacscene.com.
https://theceliacscene.com/sending-kids-school-celiac-disease/
Sue’s Doughnut Holes 1 ½ cups gluten free flour blend (I use ½ cup of each white rice flour, potato starch & corn starch) 1/3 cup white sugar 1/3 cup skim milk powder 1 tsp guar or xanthan gum (omit if your flour blend includes gum) 1 tsp salt 1 tbsp baking powder 1 tsp vanilla extract 2 tbsp oil 2 eggs 2 tbsp water Blend together all the dry ingredients. Add vanilla, oil, eggs and water. Add more water 1 tbsp at a time if batter is too thick. Blend by hand, or with a mixer. Batter should be thicker than pancake batter but not as thick as cookie dough. In a saucepan heat oil to 375° (only fill saucepan less than half full with oil, leaving enough room for the bubbling expansion of the batter). Drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil, cooking only 3 or 4 at a time. Turn to cook evenly till dark golden. Remove onto absorbent paper towel. While still warm, place in a bag with sugar and cinnamon to coat. Can be kept in sealed container 3-4 days. If you want to eat the doughnuts right away, you can drizzle them in icing or chocolate sauce, but just know they will not keep well if they get soggy (so eat them up!)

| Ep 191 Different Generations Cope with Celiac Disease | 22 Sep 2021 | 00:43:43 | |
On this episode I speak with my daughter Deanna. She has been a guest on the podcast in the past, and I take this opportunity to ask her about some of her attitudes and coping skills dealing with celiac disease and how those compare to my approaches. I was a Mom of two beautiful girls when I was diagnosed, with Deanna’s diagnosis coming five months later, just in time for her fifth birthday. Having suffered from an unknown cause for some very diverse symptoms for many years, my diagnosis became one of questioning every food, not only for me, but for my daughter. In contrast, Deanna doesn’t remember her symptoms prior to diagnosis and has been raised to understand the diet completely and take it in stride. Hopefully, you will find some aspects of each of our perspectives in your approach to the diet and how it affects your life. I couldn’t resist the urge to include some of the bloopers from our conversation in a mix up at the end of the podcast. It was a joy to have such a heart-to-heart with my all-grown-up daughter.

| Ep 190 CCA Virtual Conference 2021 | 15 Sep 2021 | 00:36:21 | |
The Canadian Celiac Association successfully presented two virtual conferences in 2020 and is now gearing up for the 2021 Conference. I speak with Nicole Byrom RD from the CCA who is organizing the conference. This conference will be somewhat different from all other CCA conferences in the past, in that of the two days, November 13th and 14th, the first day will be geared towards those who have been diagnosed for two years or less. The second day will focus on information for those who have been diagnosed longer than two years. Certainly, anyone is welcome to join either day, but I find it intriguing that this distinction was made. You can find out more about the conference, the speaker lineup and how to register by going to the CCA website and clicking on News & Events where you’ll find the Conference information listed - https://www.celiac.ca/news-events/national-conference/

| Ep 189 Camp Celiac 2021 | 08 Sep 2021 | 00:40:06 | |
On this episode I speak with Carmen from the Ottawa Chapter of the Canadian Celiac Association who came up with the idea of organizing a sleep away camp for kids with celiac disease. The camp was to have occurred last year, but as we all know, the pandemic changed that. The camp did go ahead this past August and I’m thrilled to be able to talk to Carmen about both organizing the camp as well as being on site to ensure the food was prepared and served strictly gluten free. Carmen has two daughters and they both attended camp, along with some of their friends. Carmen’s daughter, Rosie, has celiac disease, and I was thrilled to be able to ask her what she enjoyed about camp, both the activities and the meals. You can find more information at campceliac.ca Camp was made better for the donations of very generous sponsors, some of which are – Schar Gluten Free Rizopia Gluten Free Pasta O’Doughs Gluten Free Farm Boy Grocery All Free Allergen Friendly Purest Foods The Bean Sprout – Dedicated Gluten Free Chinese Food Only Oats Bobo’s Queen Street Bakery Sun Butter Aidan’s Sans Gluten Free Nature’s Path Organic Kinnikinnick Gluten Free Foods Sue’s Websites and Social Media – Podcast https://acanadianceliacpodcast.libsyn.com Podcast Blog – https://www.acanadianceliacblog.com Email – acdnceliacpodcast@gmail.com Celiac Kid Stuff – https://www.celiackidstuff.com Baking Website – https://www.suesglutenfreebaking.com Instagram - @suesgfbaking YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUVGfpD4eJwwSc_YjkGagza06yYe3ApzL Email – sue@suesglutenfreebaking.com Other Podcast – Gluten Free Weigh In – https://glutenfreeweighin.libsyn.com | |||
| Ep 188 September 2021 Roundup | 01 Sep 2021 | 01:01:41 | |
It’s the beginning of September, so it’s my opportunity to speak with Ellen Bayens of The Celiac Scene about the studies and articles she has found over the past month to present to us. We talk about a study looking at the gut microbiome of infants, in an effort to identify differences over time in the gut microbiome that later develops into celiac disease. As well, we look at an article from Beyond Celiac that examines some of the perceived difficulties of the gluten free diet and how they might be a hinderance to adherence. Ellen tells us of an adventure vacation that was very celiac safe. Ellen has compiled a list of 10 products that might be helpful when the time comes to sending kids back to school with lunches. Apart from the food, we also chat about the importance of kids being able to advocate for themselves and their diet, which brings up a short discussion about the stickers and wristbands available from Celiac Kid Stuff.
For the full articles, here are the links from theceliacscene.com Do Changes in the Gut Microbiome Precede Celiac Disease?
And here are links from Ellen’s list for school lunches. The ones with asterisks are available online, the others are found at retailers everywhere.

| Ep 187 Celebrating with Kinnikinnick | 25 Aug 2021 | 00:30:36 | |
Some good news on this podcast from Julie Greene of the CCA and Marina Michaelides of Kinnikinnick. Kinnikinnick has partnered with the Canadian Celiac Association in celebration of their 30th birthday. Partnering with the CCA means helping them with ongoing special projects. In this case, Kinnikinnick is sponsoring the wide distribution of the Growing Up Celiac book for families. Additionally, they are hosting a contest for kids which will run for 30 days, with a terrific prize pack each day! Kids are encouraged to go on the CCA website to enter (with a parent or guardian) by spotting the difference in two pictures – kids love to do that! I am thrilled that Celiac Kid Stuff stickers and wristbands were chosen to be a part of the prize packs.
Kinnikinnick is also introducing some new products for their birthday, including three new flavours of Kinni-TOOS cookies. Currently, if you place an order of a minimum $50 you get a box with all the new flavours together (until supplies last). If you haven’t purchased from Kinnikinnick in a while you may not realize that they have switched most of their products to “free from” most of the major allergens including milk and eggs (they were always nut free). If you enjoy Kinnikinnick foods, (and who doesn’t) now is the time to order while they are in a great giving birthday mode!
Here’s the link to the CCA website to enter the contest - https://www.celiac.ca/ Also, here is where you can order directly from Kinnikinnick - https://www.kinnikinnick.com/ Here’s the link for my website Celiac Kid Stuff - https://celiackidstuff.com/

| Ep 186 Step Up for Team Celiac | 18 Aug 2021 | 00:32:01 | |
As the pandemic has progressed, organizations have become more creative in adapting their annual events to still continue, but in a different format. That is certainly the case with the Scotiabank Run being held in Toronto. The CCA is heading up Team Celiac and inviting anyone across the country to Step Up for Team Celiac and participate in whatever way they can – choose a suitable distance, walk and run, challenge yourself with more than one distance, or run during the in-person event in Toronto. Other cities host Scotiabank Runs and some of our celiac groups are very involved in the events in their own locations, but if you can’t participate locally, or the Toronto run is your local run, head to the CCA website to sign up to Step Up for Team Celiac. Julie and I also discussed the upcoming virtual CCA conference, which has a different format this year. The first day is for the yet to be, or recently, diagnosed with the second day being for the those of us who have been diagnosed more than a couple of years. The CCA is also asking for our help in formulating their proposal for labelling of some foods, including supplements that do not currently fall under the labelling regulations for food. More information on these initiatives can be found on the CCA website – www.celiac.ca
You can learn more about many of the topics we discussed on the social media platforms for the CCA and the Events page of the website at – www.celiac.ca/news-events/events/

| Ep 185 Help for Those Struggling with Gluten Free | 11 Aug 2021 | 00:40:03 | |
A Conversation with Cinde Little On this episode I speak with Cinde Little, a guest I recently spoke with on the podcast regarding her virtual baking classes. Cinde has released a comprehensive course for those new to gluten free, as well as those who are continuing to struggle with the gluten free lifestyle. In Cinde’s words –
“This is an introduction to my course called HEALTHY ME, a guide to take you from overwhelmed to confident in 30 days. The course is for you if you're new to the gluten free diet or still struggling to stay on it. Your lifestyle is as individual as you are so the course allows you to determine what is most important right now. It's designed to be personal and includes 9 areas of life because a gluten free lifestyle isn't just about the diet.

| Ep 184 August 2021 Roundup | 04 Aug 2021 | 00:49:26 | |
I look forward to chatting with Ellen Bayens of www.theceliacscene.com at the beginning of every month to get caught up on celiac and gluten free news that has come to light over the past few weeks. On this episode, Ellen and I speak about a press release from the UK regarding the price increase of rice flour and how it might affect gluten free food producers. Ellen also tells us a diagnosis story from a family with a young daughter which highlights many of the frustrations felt by families with a sick child. Both Ellen and I are excited to talk about a new venture we’ve started to support celiac kids and their families. Our website www.celiackidstuff.com has begun selling stickers and wristbands that let kids tell everyone around them that they are special, they are celiac, and they need to eat a gluten free diet. The stickers and wristbands are aimed at kids from ages 4-12, as well as special stickers for caregivers to use when sending food to school or get togethers. On a similar, but different note, Ellen and I speak about restaurants in her area. There seems to be abundance of places to get gluten free fish and chips, or maybe I noticed this because its such a treat for me, and hopefully, other celiacs as well. Ellen mentions a very clean brand of jerky that is well labelled gluten free and free from other additives. Also, if you are in the Victoria area, we identify a discount you can get, just for mentioning www.theceliacscene.com.

| Ep 183 Resources for the Newly Diagnosed Family | 28 Jul 2021 | 00:34:46 | |
I spoke with Lisa Rigney on Episode 180 of the podcast about what happens when a child gets diagnosed. Realizing it actually becomes a diagnosis for the entire family, I asked Lisa back to talk about some of the resources she found and used after her daughter was diagnosed. Recently, Lisa wrote an article for the newsletter of the Edmonton Chapter of the Canadian Celiac Association listing the resources that she often recommends to families. We look at her list and how she was able to benefit from becoming part of both local and virtual celiac communities. Here is an extensive list of resources from Lisa’s article.

| Ep 299 A Child's Diagnosis | 13 Mar 2024 | 00:34:39 | |
I recently realized that although many of the people I speak with have been involved in the celiac and gluten free community for many years, I wasn’t well acquainted with the families of the newly diagnosed. When I operated my bakery, I was often the first celiac that people met after their diagnosis – it appears doctors were sending them my way. Since closing the bakery, I’ve built on my knowledge, but I must admit, I need a new perspective on what it’s like to raise a celiac child today. Ellen Bayens (theceliacscene.com) was kind enough to introduce me to Kelsea. She is a mom of a busy 10-year-old boy and can clearly remember what life was like before, during and after the diagnosis. Our conversation centres around the diagnosis and how the entire family was affected. I hope to have Kelsea on again to explore more aspects of being a parent to a celiac child. Hopefully, I’ll speak with her son at some point as well.

| Ep 182 The Kinnikinnick Response to Covid | 21 Jul 2021 | 00:40:02 | |
It’s always special when I have a returning guest to the podcast. I last spoke in person to Jerry Bigam during the “State of Celiac Symposium” organized by the Canadian Celiac Association in Toronto more than two years ago. So much has happened since. I was curious as to how our trusted gluten free businesses faired during the complete upheaval of the past 18 months. Turns out Kinnikinnick was well positioned and took swift action to both maintain their direct to consumer base, and take advantage of the many changes that were taking place in our lives, including staying at home, having kids out of school and our reluctance to venture out for shopping. Jerry has led Kinnikinnick through the past 18 months with a strong vision for the future, and for a commitment to celiac consumers.

| Ep 181 Baking with The Everyday Gluten Free Gourmet | 14 Jul 2021 | 00:38:34 | |
On this episode I speak with food blogger and recipe developer Cinde Little, also known as The Everyday Gluten Free Gourmet. Over the past year, Cinde has pivoted her in-person baking and cooking classed to online classes, and this is where I spent an enjoyable evening this past week. This may not seem like a big deal, but Cinde has worked to achieve a high quality of audio, video, timing and student experience. She has two cameras on her, so we can see her in her kitchen, as well as a closeup of her work area. I learned something in our class making biscuit-style cinnamon buns and it was nice to hear Cinde say she learns from her students in every class. You can follow Cinde on Instagram at everyday.gf.gourmet. As well, you can browse some of her recipes and sign up for a baking class on her website at www.everydayglutenfreegourmet.ca

| Ep 180 When a Child Gets Diagnosed | 07 Jul 2021 | 00:38:37 | |
On this episode I speak with Lisa Rigney of the Edmonton Chapter of the Canadian Celiac Association about her family’s experience of having a child diagnosed with celiac disease. Lisa takes us through what happened, and more importantly, how the family coped. We all understand a serious diagnosis is overwhelming, but I think by sharing our experiences, it lets us all realize that we can only do our best in trying times. Lisa explains some of the situations she wasn’t prepared for, as well as the discussions she had with other family members, friends and the school. At the end of our conversation, we agreed to meet up again soon to talk about the support systems available to families of the newly diagnosed, and expectations as the child gets older.

| Ep 179 July 2021 Roundup | 30 Jun 2021 | 01:02:21 | |
On this episode I speak with Ellen Bayens of theceliacscene.com to discuss the many topics and articles she brought to our attention over the past month. To begin the conversation, I invited Tamir Barzilai from the company honeycomb.ai. Tamir’s company is developing an app which will allow you to set a profile with your dietary restrictions, and give you specific meal suggestions at restaurants to meet your needs. The app will be released in late summer or early fall, and will charge for use on a monthly basis. Tamir invited our listeners to sign up for the app prior to release at a cost of $14 (US) to own the app for life, without monthly charges. There are other advantages to joining the beta testing for the app when it releases. Tamir explains what makes this app with artificial intelligence different from other data based and often crowd sourced information apps. You can sign up as an early adopter for the app at – https://get.honeycomb.ai/celiac/ Ellen and I go on to chat about three online medical resources that provide indepth information on celiac disease and other related gut health issues. One of the resources compares celiac disease to IBS, a condition many of us have been diagnosed with. Ellen and I talk about a recent article on money saving strategies for the gluten free diet, and a study performing a new type of mass screening of children in Italy for celiac disease. As well, Ellen talks about our unique ability to host visiting students who require a gluten free diet. Expert Tips on Saving Money on Gluten-Free Groceries

| Ep 178 Plant Based Gluten Free | 23 Jun 2021 | 00:56:48 | |
A Conversation with Desiree Nielsen and Ellen Bayens A plant-based diet has many formats and can go by many names including vegetarian and vegan. On this episode I speak with Ellen Bayens about her recent pivot from gluten free to a plant-based gluten free diet. Recently, Ellen introduced me to a fellow podcaster, Desiree Nielsen, who is also a registered dietitian. This was a great opportunity to ask all the questions I’ve ever had about a plant-based diet and how it fits for someone who must adhere to a strict gluten free diet. Ellen talks about how she decided to try a plant-based diet, how she started and how she’s truly enjoying exploring new foods and flavours. Desiree walks us through the simplicity of the diet and gives us some specific tips to keep plant-based gluten free. You can listen to Desiree’s podcast – The Allsorts Podcast wherever you listen to podcasts, or you can listen online at https://desireerd.com/podcast/. You can also find more information about Desiree’s book and her recipes at https://desireerd.com/.

| Ep 177 Gluten Free in a Gluten Household | 16 Jun 2021 | 00:37:32 | |
There are many things that those of us on a gluten free diet must learn quickly once we receive our diagnosis. For many of us the most challenging is how to prepare and safely eat a gluten free diet, while living in a household that eats gluten. Carla and I discuss this common situation. We offer different suggestions for day-to-day coping and highlight the idea that every family situation is different. What might work for you and your family may not be workable for another. The strictness of the diet is something we all have in common, as well as the frustration of educating our family members. Both Carla and I agree that over time, as a family you will settle into routines that are work-able for your situation – family members begin to understand and accept, children get older and have a greater understanding, and the celiac family member gets better, which makes it all worthwhile. Carla is a co-host on my other podcast “Gluten Free Weigh In” and she finds following an intermittent fasting lifestyle works for weight loss and makes her gluten free diet easier to cope with.

| Ep 176 Gluten Free Certification with BRCGS | 09 Jun 2021 | 00:38:57 | |
On this episode I speak with Jon Murthy, Head of Global Marketing for BRCGS. This is the organization that certifies foods for the CCA gluten free logo, as part of their many certification programs. Originally, this operation was performed by a relatively small, but knowledgeable group in Canada, but moving this important function to a multi-national, multi-discipline certification body, brings an entirely new perspective to gluten free food safety. Jon discusses the process a company must go through to achieve certification, as well as the complexities of companies producing and exporting ingredients and prepared foods to maintain their certification status. This global perspective is a complicated concept, but BRCGS certainly seems up to the international challenge. You can find out more about BRCGS at https://www.brcgs.com/ You can also get more information about food recalls on Canadian Celiac Association at this link – https://www.celiac.ca/living-gluten-free/food_recalls/

| Ep 175 June 2021 Roundup | 02 Jun 2021 | 01:15:04 | |
It’s the beginning of June and that means another informative conversation with Ellen Bayens of theceliacscene.com. This past month Ellen has brought us a great deal 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. Ellen has once again brought us new resources, 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. Two related topics are discussed – the 10 biggest challenges faced by the gluten free community, and how to order a gluten free meal at a restaurant. There’s lots of overlap here. Finally Ellen tells us about a study that is being done for US patients on atopic dermatitis, and you can get paid to participate. So much news, I think this is my longest interview episode yet. Thanks Ellen. Here are the links to more information –

| Ep 173 Celiac Awareness Month Across Canada | 19 May 2021 | 00:46:34 | |
On last week’s episode, #172 I spoke with Melissa Secord, Executive Director of the CCA about things that were happening at the national level for Celiac Awareness Month. On this episode I’m speaking with Julie Greene about everything that’s happening across the country to mark this month, and in particular Sunday, May 16th, Celiac Awareness Day. Julie makes note of all the cities and towns across the country that are having buildings, monuments, bridges and signs lit up green for Celiac Awareness. As well, many chapters and groups across the country are hosting a variety of virtual events for celiacs, children and the newly diagnosed. You can follow many of the events on the CCA website at https://www.celiac.ca/news-events/events/ As well you can follow the social media around Celiac Awareness Month with the hashtags – #ItsNotPretend #ShineALightOnCeliac #GFOreoMoments Sue’s Websites and Social Media – Podcast https://acanadianceliacpodcast.libsyn.com Podcast Blog – https://www.acanadianceliacblog.com Facebook - @acanadianceliacpodcast Twitter – CeliacPodcastCA Email – acdnceliacpodcast@gmail.com Baking Website – https://www.suesglutenfreebaking.com Instagram - @suesgfbaking YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUVGfpD4eJwwSc_YjkGagza06yYe3ApzL Email – sue@suesglutenfreebaking.com Other Podcast – Gluten Free Weigh In – https://glutenfreeweighin.libsyn.com | |||
| Ep 298 State of Celiac I | 06 Mar 2024 | 00:40:44 | |
During the last week of February, Celiac Canada held an event called The State of Celiac Disease in Canada, during which the preliminary results of the recent national survey were presented. I was invited to bring my podcast equipment to the event and record conversations with some of those involved. This episode was recorded at the event, so you will notice some distortion and background noise in the audio – there was lots going on. I had the pleasure of speaking with James King. James has been a guest on the podcast previously, but this conversation was all about survey results. James is an analyst who is able to make sense of the numbers. He shares some of his insights into survey results with us. I also spoke to Registered Dietician Caleigh McAulay from Celiac Canada about her role in the formulation of the survey and how the results might help her help us. You can download the survey presentation booklet and view some of the highlights on Celiac Canada’s website at - https://www.celiac.ca/state-of-celiac/ You can also watch The State of Celiac Disease in Canada presentation that was live on YouTube at - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I__T36eeNd8&ab_channel=CeliacCanada Celiac Canada has an extensive library of videos and presentations on YouTube that answer many of the questions you might have about celiac disease and the gluten free diet – and don’t forget to subscribe to the channel while you’re there. https://www.youtube.com/c/CanadianCeliacAssociation Sue’s Websites and Social Media – Podcast https://acanadianceliacpodcast.libsyn.com Podcast Blog – https://www.acanadianceliacblog.com Email – acdnceliacpodcast@gmail.com Celiac Kid Stuff – https://www.celiackidstuff.com Baking Website – https://www.suesglutenfreebaking.com Instagram - @suesgfbaking YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUVGfpD4eJwwSc_YjkGagza06yYe3ApzL Email – sue@suesglutenfreebaking.com Other Podcast – Gluten Free Weigh In – https://glutenfreeweighin.libsyn.com | |||
| Ep 172 Celiac Awareness Month with Melissa Secord | 12 May 2021 | 00:33:13 | |
On this episode I catch up with Melissa Secord, Executive Director of the Canadian Celiac Association. Melissa, along with her small staff is handling the promotion of May, Celiac Awareness Month from a big picture, national perspective. We chat about some of the initiatives that are being done to “Shine a Light” on celiac disease, by having iconic buildings and structures across the country lit up green during this month. If you live near a “Shine the Light” event, please take a photo and post it with the hashtag #ShineALightOnCeliac. We talk about the tag line, or slogan for this year – “It’s Not Pretend”, how it was arrived at and who the target audience is. Melissa is also able to share with us the participation that large and small companies as well as private sponsors are having during this month. I was asked to make three recipe videos using Promise Bread products as a thank you to them for being a lead sponsor of Celiac Awareness Month. The videos will be airing on the CCA’s social media beginning on Sunday May 16th, Celiac Awareness Day. Please watch and share – I really enjoyed making them (and you get to see me in my kitchen). If you want to share other information about your celiac journey online, please use the hashtag #ItsNotPretend, to be part of the conversation. There’s lots going on at the national level to do with Celiac Awareness Month, as well, there are initiatives across the country on a smaller scale. To get the information on those activities I will be talking with Julie Greene of the CCA for next week’s episode.

Happy Celiac Awareness Month! This is the first episode of the month and that means I get to discuss a variety of different topics about celiac disease and the gluten free diet with Ellen Bayens of theceliacscene.com. Ellen and I chat about a Canadian study on the expense and social challenges of the gluten free diet. The study looks at the myth of the diet for weight loss as well as some positive trends with those of us eating gluten free. Ellen introduces me to Gnu Sante, a company making “lunchbox friendly” smoothies for kids that are gluten free and actually good for them. Ellen and I talk very briefly about the suitability of a plant-based diet for those of us eating gluten free. I acknowledged that this is a big subject, and deserves its own podcast episode – something Ellen and I will arrange in the near future. Two very resourceful ladies came into focus on this episode – Selena Devries RD and Cinde Little. Both have large followings on social media – Selena for her professional help with the gluten free diet and Cinde for her new “Healthy Me” course as well as her recipes and videos. Since May is Celiac Awareness Month, I tease Ellen with some of the activities I’m involved with, including recipe videos and a curbside gluten free food drive.

A Conversation with Lukas Hahn This episode started from a discussion with Ellen Bayens of theceliacscene.com for the April roundup episode 166 when she told me the story of a student from abroad, studying in Victoria in a homestay program, who was having difficulty as she required a gluten free diet. Ellen assisted in solving the problem, but it brought so many other questions to my mind about homestay and a special diet. On this episode I speak with Lukas Hahn, Manager – Homestay Program, Greater Victoria School District, who helps organize both the students coming to study in Victoria, as well as the families they will stay with. Lukas gives us a great perspective on the opportunities hosting a student gives a family and large community. We discuss what a host family is required to do, some of the responsibilities and some of the perks. We talk about the practical experiences of a foreign student on a gluten free diet, as well as how families who are already gluten free can be invaluable to the program. https://www.studyinvictoria.com/ Sue’s Websites and Social Media – Podcast https://acanadianceliacpodcast.libsyn.com Podcast Blog – https://www.acanadianceliacblog.com Facebook - @acanadianceliacpodcast Twitter – CeliacPodcastCA Email – acdnceliacpodcast@gmail.com Baking Website – https://www.suesglutenfreebaking.com Instagram - @suesgfbaking YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUVGfpD4eJwwSc_YjkGagza06yYe3ApzL Email – sue@suesglutenfreebaking.com Other Podcast – Gluten Free Weigh In – https://glutenfreeweighin.libsyn.com | |||
