At least 3 million people in our country are living with celiac disease—97% of them are undiagnosed. Today we focus on the patient journey with Erica Dermer, an award winning author, blogger and influencer better known as Celiac and the Beast. Erica shares her journey to diagnosis, offers tips on living well with celiac disease, and explains why living gluten-free isn’t a fad diet for her and others with celiac disease--it’s the only treatment for this serious health condition.

Johannah and Jeffrey share their unique perspectives on living with IBS, how men and women may approach their symptoms differently, and why the brain-gut connection is key to understanding IBS.
