A Gluten Free Podcast Episode 188What if fast food could be 100% gluten free, safe for coeliacs, nut-free, and with dairy-free options too? That dream is becoming reality thanks to Sonny Wells, founder of Sonny's Food, the UK-based startup gaining global attention — from the coeliac community and business leaders like Richard Branson, Simon Squibb, and Steven Bartlett.In this episode, Sonny shares how his coeliac diagnosis over a decade ago led to a bold mission: to create a fully coeliac-safe fast food chain that makes gluten free dining fast, easy, and safe — without compromise. We talk about his personal journey, the challenges of being a male in the gluten free space, and how the idea for Sonny's Food came to life.

So much of the celiac disease conversation focuses on getting diagnosed and avoiding gluten. But what about everything that comes after?In this episode, I open up about the long-term effects of celiac disease and why going gluten free isn't always the magic fix.

A Gluten Free PodcastEpisode 187This week, we're flipping the script on how we think about coeliac disease and gluten free living. What if we approached it like a scientist?I've spoken with leading experts like Dr Jason Tye-Din, Olivia Moscatelli and Andrew Williams — all scientists who use trial, error, and objectivity to explore the unknown. While we may not be in a lab, we can use their mindset to navigate our own gluten free lives.

 A new blood test being developed for coeliac disease that avoids people having to eat gluten to confirm the condition.

A Gluten Free Podcast Episode 186This week on the podcast, I'm joined by Associate Professor Kelly Lambert, Academic Program Director for Nutrition and Dietetics at the University of Wollongong in New South Wales. Kelly and I first connected during a panel discussion at the Sydney Gluten Free Expo, where we tackled one of the most talked-about and often frustrating issues in the coeliac and gluten free space – the cost of gluten free food.With the rising cost of living, the financial burden of maintaining a gluten free diet has only become more difficult for those of us with coeliac disease. Kelly has spent years studying this issue and shares some brand new research findings in this episode, including how her team conducted the studies and what the results reveal about the state of gluten free food affordability in Australia.

In this episode, I'm diving into 9 skin conditions that are commonly linked to celiac disease—and how going gluten free can sometimes be the missing piece of the puzzle.From the intense itching of dermatitis herpetiformis to skin conditions like rosacea, eczema, and psoriasis, we'll chat about how these issues can be signs that your body is reacting to more than just a cream can fix. I even share a personal story about my brother, whose psoriasis only cleared up once he removed gluten from his diet after a celiac diagnosis.We'll also cover some lesser-known links like alopecia, dry skin, mouth ulcers, and even acne because the skin-gut connection is real. If you're newly diagnosed or just wondering whether gluten could be affecting your skin, this episode will give you some clarity, a few “ah-ha” moments, and hopefully a bit of relief too.

A Gluten Free PodcastEpisode 185Welcome to this solo episode of Gluten Free Thoughts, where I'm reflecting on an essential but sometimes tricky topic: balance.

Everyone's journey is different, and today I want to encourage you to find your balance and to do YOU.

Imagine a future where you don't have to eat gluten again just to get a diagnosis. That future might be closer than we think.I'm sharing all the latest on the new IL-2 blood test being developed, what it means for people who've already gone gluten free, and why it matters so much.

This episode is packed—so if you've ever struggled with getting answers, you won't want to miss this one.

A Gluten Free Podcast Episode 184 In this episode of A Gluten Free Podcast, I'm joined by Dr. Andrew Williams, Principal Scientist at Westmead Children's Hospital in Sydney, Australia. Dr. Williams has spent decades researching coeliac disease and the complex immunological processes behind it. We explore how coeliac disease research has evolved, what still needs to change, and how early diagnosis in children could significantly improve health outcomes across Australia and globally.We dive into the inspiration behind Dr. Williams' career in immunological research, his earliest experiences working with children diagnosed with coeliac disease, and what initially drew his attention to this autoimmune condition. With so many people still undiagnosed, we talk about how Australia compares to other countries like Italy, where screening children for coeliac disease and Type 1 diabetes is already underway.We also discuss promising innovations like the Novoleukin blood test—a tool being developed to detect coeliac disease even in people who are already on a gluten-free diet. This episode offers a hopeful and practical look into how coeliac disease awareness, testing methods, and healthcare systems could shift for the better—if we focus our efforts in the right places.What We Cover:How Dr. Andrew Williams became involved in coeliac disease researchWhat we knew (and didn't know) about coeliac disease when he began his careerMajor milestones in coeliac disease research over the past few decadesReal-life stories from the clinic that shaped his perspectiveThe critical need for early diagnosis in children with coeliac diseaseWhy so many Australians remain undiagnosed and what needs to changeHow other countries like Italy are taking proactive steps to improve coeliac screeningThe future of coeliac disease testing, including the upcoming Novoleukin diagnostic toolWhat parents of children with coeliac disease need to knowHow one powerful conversation reminded him why this work matters

A Gluten Free Podcast Episode 183 – Time for a Gluten Free AuditWelcome back! In today's solo episode, we're taking an unexpected but surprisingly helpful detour… into taxes. Yep — sounds dull, but stick with me! As my wife Bec (who handles all the books for my businesses — legend!) and I went through receipts and plans, it got me thinking: this same process can help us check in with how we're managing coeliac disease and our gluten free lifestyle. So, today I'm inviting you to do a gluten free audit with me.Living with coeliac disease isn't a “set and forget” situation. Whether you're newly diagnosed or a seasoned gluten free pro, it's easy to drift into habits that aren't serving you anymore. Taking time to reflect can make a huge difference — not for perfection, but for progress.Here are a few powerful questions we'll explore together:What's going well in your gluten free life?Where are you just getting by?What habits support you?Which ones need a rethink?To help guide this process, I break the audit into five key areas:1. Health Check-UpsWhen was your last coeliac blood test? Are you staying on top of things like iron, B12, and vitamin D levels? If you've been diagnosed, did you get proper follow-up testing? Regular health check-ins keep us informed, empowered, and thriving — not just surviving.2. Dining OutDo you feel confident eating out or does it cause stress? Are you asking the right questions, checking menus properly, and setting boundaries when needed? I'll share some prompts to help you feel more at ease. (And if you haven't yet, check out my chat with Anthony Dionne on how to dine out gluten free — it's full of practical tips.)3. Making Gluten Free Food at HomeAre you stuck in a food rut? Or maybe relying on packaged foods more than you'd like? Let's look at how you can bring more joy and variety back into your gluten free kitchen. Cooking at home should be safe, nourishing — and fun!4. Preparation & PlanningAre you prepared for busy days, travel, or unexpected social events? Planning can make life smoother — whether that's packing safe snacks, prepping meals, or thinking ahead to events. Small changes here can lead to big results.5. Support NetworkWho's in your corner? Living gluten free can feel isolating. Whether it's friends, family, online communities, or professionals, having people who get it makes a real difference. And if you're feeling alone, I want you to know I'm here to support you too.I'll also share my own honest reflections — where I'm doing well and where I still have work to do. Because let's be real: none of us are perfect. That's not the goal. What matters is checking in, adjusting where needed, and giving ourselves the chance to grow.Resources mentioned:

I reflect on how having so much choice can sometimes make eating out harder rather than easier when you live with celiac disease. You'll hear about my experiences using the Find Me Gluten Free app, how our meals ended up looking very different to what I usually prefer, and how understanding my human design helped me realise that sometimes having fewer options actually brings more peace, clarity, and enjoyment. If you've ever wished for more gluten free restaurants, or found yourself stressed by too many choices, this episode will help you reframe your thinking and find gratitude in simplicity.
