About

CeliEats

Features

Managing celiac disease means keeping track of lab results, remembering daily supplements, finding safe places to eat, and never missing a follow-up test. CeliEats brings all of that into one place. This app was built by someone who has celiac disease. The frustration of juggling lab documents, forgetting vitamins while traveling, and struggling to find safe food in unfamiliar cities is what inspired it. WHAT YOU CAN DO: Health Dashboard See your recent lab results, upcoming reminders, and nearby gluten-free spots the moment you open the app. Lab Results Upload your celiac lab documents (photos or PDFs) and let the app extract your markers automatically — tTG-IgA, IgG, and more. Results are color-coded so you can instantly spot anything abnormal. Manual entry is also supported. Explore Gluten-Free Places Search a directory of celiac-safe restaurants, cafes, bakeries, and products — filterable by country, city, and type. Each listing explains why it's safe. Save your favorites for quick access. Vitamin Tracker Log your daily supplements by time of day and get push notification reminders. The app checks for harmful interactions between vitamins and alerts you to any conflicts. Lab Test Reminders Set recurring reminders for your celiac follow-up tests — every 90 days or on your own schedule — and get notified when one is due. Submit a Listing Know a gluten-free spot that's not listed yet? Submit it with photos, address, and a description of why it's safe for celiacs. Submissions go through a review process before going live. Secure & Personal Your health profile, biometric login (Face ID / fingerprint), and a full notification center for labs, vitamins, and listing updates — all in one place. CeliEats is for anyone living with celiac disease who wants to feel more in control of their health.
