Beyond Celiac

Science can’t fix what it doesn’t fully understand. Researchers have the tools to develop new treatments, but your lived experience is the essential evidence needed to prove why a gluten-free diet isn't enough.

Help us show the true impact of this condition by taking our 2026 Burden of Disease survey. https://hubs.li/Q04kj5X90

Your voice provides the urgency science needs. Don't let your bad days go to waste—turn them into data.

"Thank you everyone for a successful event! I am truly honored to continue working alongside such an exceptional team, and deeply grateful for the leadership and support of the Board of Directors and the Beyond Celiac team." - Alice Bast

Whether you supported from near or far, thank you to everyone who made this year’s Evening Beyond Celiac event a smashing success! Stay tuned for more photos and our final fundraising count - coming soon!

That's a wrap on Celiac Awareness Month 2026! ⭐ From fun fundraisers to community connections to dazzling displays, this May was a month to remember. From all of us at Beyond Celiac, thank you for educating, advocating, and awareness-raising with us! 💚

To move promising new drugs through the final hurdles of development, the FDA and pharmaceutical companies need undeniable evidence that celiac disease and the gluten-free diet are burdensome enough to warrant more treatment options.

To provide information, Beyond Celiac has opened our 2026 Burden of Disease survey. We ask everyone with celiac disease to take it alongside two friends who are not gluten-free.

Both groups of people are extremely important to show the challenges of a gluten-free diet as a lifelong treatment.

Your daily challenges can be turned into data that pushes us closer to a cure. Get started now ➡️ https://hubs.li/Q04jdNgn0

Celiac disease isn't a food intolerance; for us, ingesting gluten can damage the small intestine and set off a host of symptoms.

Unfortunately, it can be tough to avoid gluten—it's like avoiding glitter! Check out our top tips for reducing exposure ⬇️

❌ No double dippers please!❌

When someone spreads butter on bread and then uses the same knife to get more, it can leave tiny crumbs in the butter—unsafe for folks with celiac disease, and tough to truly separate, like picking glitter out of glue.

Protect loved ones with celiac disease by keeping separate jars of condiments like mayo and peanut butter, or buying squeeze bottles of sauces like ketchup and mustard.

Likening gluten to glitter is a great way to help someone understand just how easily gluten can spread across lots of different surfaces. It makes it easier to understand why people with celiac disease can feel so exhausted thinking about food and food safety all the time, and how simple practices, like washing hands frequently with soap and water, can go a long way in helping people with celiac stay safe.
