74: Living Your Best Gluten-Free Life

Celiac Straight Talk

This is a recording of the "Living Your Best Gluten-Free Life" panel from our 2023 Community Summity. It features four gluten-free influencers, Phil, Liz, Erin and Emily, discussing how they've tackled their health conditions and thrived on the gluten-free diet.

Phil is the creator behind @PhilHatesGluten, a popular TikTok and Instagram account. He uses humor to allieviate the burden of managing eosinophilic esophagitis.

Liz Purvis is a celiac disease advocate and content creator (@yeet.that.wheat on Instagram and TikTok) living with celiac disease. Her content focuses on health equity and her experience as a Black woman living with celiac.

Erin Smith is the creator of Gluten-Free Globetrotter, a travel website that provides information about eating gluten-free and traveling with celiac. She's been living with celiac disease since 1981 and eating gluten-free long before it was "trendy.”

Emily Shaw is best known for her viral DIY TikTok account @emilyrayna. She has been featured in prestigious publications including The New York Times, Architectural Digest, Business of Home, The Drew Barrymore Show, and more. Something her fans may not know is that she also happens to have celiac disease.
