Navigating Coeliac Disease as a Family – with Gabrielle from Gluten Free By Gabrielle

A Gluten Free Podcast Episode 3On this episode of A Gluten Free Podcast, I’m joined by Gabrielle, the passionate voice behind Gluten Free By Gabrielle on Instagram. Gabrielle opens up about her family’s gluten-free journey, which began when her young daughter was diagnosed with coeliac disease. She shares what it was like navigating that initial diagnosis, learning how to adapt their lifestyle, and the emotional impact that comes with managing a chronic autoimmune condition in a child.In addition to her daughter’s coeliac disease, Gabrielle also discusses her own experience living with allergies and how that has shaped her understanding of food, health, and advocacy. Through trial and error, education, and community support, she’s gained a wealth of knowledge about the gluten-free diet, coeliac disease management, and what it really means to live safely and confidently in a world where gluten is everywhere.This is a must-listen for parents, carers, or anyone newly diagnosed with coeliac disease or managing food allergies. Gabrielle’s insights and honest reflections will resonate with anyone who has had to make major lifestyle changes for their health or the health of a loved one.Whether you're just starting your gluten-free journey or you're a seasoned coeliac looking to connect with others who “get it,” this conversation is full of relatable moments and helpful takeaways.Note: Since recording, Gabrielle’s Instagram account has unfortunately been hacked and is no longer active.
