Welcome to 100 Things I Wish I'd Known About Being Gluten Free - a podcast brought to you by Coeliac UK. Coeliac disease is a serious autoimmune condition where the body’s immune system attacks its own tissues when you eat gluten. Coeliac disease is not an allergy or food intolerance, and the only treatment is a strict gluten free diet for life. The condition affects 1 in 100 people in the UK, but only 36% of them are diagnosed, leaving an estimated 500,000 living with unexplained symptoms. In this podcast series, we'll explore a vast array of topics related to living well gluten free. From getting a diagnosis to the latest advancements in medical research, dining out safely, managing the gluten free diet, travelling abroad, and so much more. Our aim is to bring you valuable insights, inspiring stories, and expert advice to help you navigate living gluten free with confidence. Our hosts will be Becky Excell and Aimee Vivian, who are both extremely passionate about raising awareness of coeliac disease and other gluten related conditions. So, whether you've recently been diagnosed with coeliac disease, have a friend, family or loved one who has the condition, or you're just interested in learning more about gluten free living, this podcast is for you. Coeliac UK is a charity supporting those who need to live gluten free and our aim is to provide trustworthy advice and support, fund critical research into coeliac disease, work with healthcare professionals to improve diagnosis and fight for better availability of gluten free food, so that one day, no one’s life will be limited by gluten.
