Being gluten free is a nightmare because of the stigmatism from the gluten free movement and all of those idiots fadding. Sincerally a gluten allergy sufferer well not so much an allergy as much as a immune system disease.
I know how serious it can get. One of my roommates got diagnosed with celiacs while we were living together, we all had to learn a whole lot about food. He was out for two days when someone got bread crumbs in the butter.
He loves the fad because of all the gluten free options.
As far as I know, all allergies are immune diseases. Intolerances and sensitivities have different mechanisms. An immune diease is when the immune system attacks healthy cells, and an auto-immune diease like celiacs is when the immune system attacks itself. I believe there’s some evidence that non-celiacs gluten allergy could have auto-immune aspects.
Its hard. I have highly sensitive. Cooking on separate equipment and dishes. Disposable dishes at times. It’s even harder than my room mates and family do not understand even though they see how much I’ve been in the hospital and suffered immensely. There’s certainly more food options that years ago but that’s about the only good win. Most people just think your a nutcase the moment you tell them. They think your woke or something. Even doctors and hospital staff like nurses don’t fully understand. It’s very hard to navigate and a lot or most things are trial and error still.
