We may see gluten-free food as a fancy western concept but a large ... Gluten sensitivity and celiac disease is not well understood by people here.

Good article for the most part.  So many doctors think that if you are not of European descent you have a low likelyhood of developing celiac. That is not the case at all as it can affect those of any nationality.  Articles like this can help to end that thinking.

      @GardeningForHealth, About that study... The scientists were testing how well different gluten detection tests were at detecting gluten in different kinds of food products.   The scientists knew the meat had gluten in it already.  They "spiked" the samples. "...we selected a set of 32 samples (Table 2) to represent a wide range of grains and gluten concentrations and to encompass a wide range of food matrices. All the samples had previously tested at levels of between 5–1000 ppm gluten by the RIDASCREEN® Gliadin kit or the RIDASCREEN® FAST Gliadin kit, except for the raw meat sample which was previously tested to contain more than 1000 ppm gluten but was chosen to include a meat matrix. Samples were processed to provide a relatively uniform distribution of sample material prior to extraction. Raw meat was blended using a Cuisinart Mini-Prep Plus® processor (Model DLC-2A)."

      Hello, @StrongerThanCeliac, Not insane.  Misdirected, maybe. The digestive enzymes in saliva and the bacteria in the mouth probably digest all the gluten before then.   More likely, it takes that long for your histamine level to come down.  Histamine is released by mast cells as part of the reaction to gluten.  Vitamin C, B12, and Thiamine (Benfotiamine) are good antioxidants which can help lower the inflammation.   When I get glutened, I like having  hot tea with a couple of whole cloves in it.  Cloves contain Eugenol, an anti-inflammatory oil, that can calm the immune response.  You can chew up and swallow the cloves which will have some antibacterial action in your mouth, and be calming to the digestive tract.   Hope you feel better soon!

      Flavorings usually identified but don't know if there are laws that govern that. I bot lamb shanks that had rosemary flavor but did not see anything else that might be a grain so I ate it. I eat tons ground beef usually organic and grass fed from aldi. Not identified as gluten-free but hopefully it is. On the other hand I would only eat hot dogs which has several ingredients if identified gluten-free.

      All liquor that has been distilled are gluten-free because the liquor is captured from evaporation. Gluten is a heavy protein that will not evaporate make it safe for all celiac’s. cheers!

      Ground meats can contain flavorings and fillers. You must look for the gluten-free symbol on the packaging. I use Jennie-O brands which are marked gluten-free.
