In this episode, Jules shows off the footwear no one wants in 2023 and does a PSA for using handrails. Erica waxes poetic about the new mint-flavored GF OREO cookies, which somehow provides a great segue to a mutual lament about the use of non-purity protocol oats in gluten-free products. Also, an update to the American College of Gastroenterology guidelines for celiac disease!

*Please note that while these guidelines recommend the upper endoscopy/biopsy with elevated serology for both adults and children, it does give a nod to the ESPGHAN guidelines for a serology-only diagnosis for those with 10X the normal serology* Per Dr. Lebwohl, "These new guidelines are not a wholesale adoption of ESPGHAN's recs for diagnosis but rather a nod in that direction. "Suggest" instead of "recommend" reflects a conditional recommendation for the non-biopsy approach, i.e. not strong. And for adults it's only "after the fact.""
