A call has gone out to restaurants across the motu to buck up their ideas when it comes to their gluten-free dining offerings. More than 100,000 New Zealanders are estimated to be living with coeliac disease, with thousands more likely undiagnosed. Now Coeliac New Zealand says people too often are navigating a minefield of hidden ingredients, cross-contamination risks, and the fear of being misunderstood or dismissed for being coeliac. The non-profit says this will both benefit our gluten-free community and could revitalise the struggling hospitality sector. Wendy Bremner is general manager at Coeliac New Zealand. She joins Jesse.

Around half of people with migraine disease turn to non-medication treatments to ease their symptoms, new research has revealed. The Migraine in Aotearoa New Zealand survey from University of Otago researchers asked participants about supplements and treatments they've used including magnesium and vitamin B2 or meditation, yoga and massage. Dr Fiona Imlach is an epidemiologist at the Department of Public Health at the University of Otago and founder of charity Migraine Foundation Aotearoa New Zealand. She says there is no one-size-fits-all approach to migraine treatment and that while there are some treatments out there that are not recommended, many non-pharmacological approaches can actually help - they just aren't available here.
