Podcast 2: Analysis Of Diagnostic Tests For Celiac Disease And My Daughter’s Story

February 26, 2010 · Filed Under Analysis Of Diagnostic Tests, Podcasts 

This is the second podcast in a 3 part series. In this podcast, diagnostic tests for celiac disease are analyzed. As well, my daughter’s experience with undiagnosed celiac disease and some tips for children who are eating gluten-free are included. I hope this podcast helps to outline the difficulties associated with ruling out celiac disease and gluten intolerance. There are many underlying reasons for false negative results.

Erin Elberson, a fitness blogger from sunny Florida, USA, contacted me in January and inquired about my interest in this series. I was very excited about this venture with Erin since I have not covered the basic pathophysiology, an analysis of diagnosis, or my experiences with the gluten-free diet yet. Thanks to Erin, this series of podcasts gave me the perfect opportunity to accomplish that goal and to hopefully present it in a more interesting way through podcasting. Erin also has celiac disease and manages a wonderful blog called “Gluten Free Fitness”. She has her Master’s degree in Physical Therapy, a Bachelor’s in Health Science, and is an amateur Figure competitor. Through her blog, Erin advocates good nutrition and fitness habits to improve quality of life and health.
