Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Paulyw! So, we need some clarification here because your post is a little confusing. Am I correct in assuming that before you ate the food offered by your client, you were already aware that gluten-containing foods made you ill? And am I correct in assuming that you have never had any formal testing done...- autoimmune disease

Hi-im new to this forum so thankyou for accepting me. I have had dietary issues for at least 12 years. Last summer i had a terrible episode when a client made me lunch-2 toasties and 2 slices of homemade cake. I am a landscape gardener. I was stupid to drop my guard and eat the food-not wanting to offend the kindness. Within 1 hour i...- autoimmune disease

Can You Really Trust Gluten-Free Menus? What Every Celiac Needs to Know Before Eating Out
@Brenda Sanchez, you must have a true allergy to wheat or some other ingredient that was in that pizza since a celiac gluten reaction isn't the same as anaphylaxis.- cross contamination

I wanted to know what are you go to besides whole fruits/veggies that you find are healthy for you where you can feel eating normal without hurting yourself or health. I was looking into subscription based like Thrift to see if there is something that is healthier CGF that can make me feel normal. Thanks -

Cristiana, that sounds like a great approach and I will be looking forward to the results. I am in the same boat as you. I don't experience overt symptoms with minor, cross contamination level exposures so I sometimes will indulge in those "processed on equipment that also processes wheat . . ." or items that don't specifically claim to be gluten free but do not list gluten containing grains in their ingredient list. But I always wonder if I am still experiencing sub acute inflammatory reactions. I haven't had any celiac antibody blood work done since my diagnosis almost 25 years ago so I don't really have any data to go by.

I've been reflecting on this further. The lowest TTG I've ever managed was 4.5 (normal lab reading under 10). Since then it has gone up to 10. I am not happy with that. I can only explain this by the fact that I am eating out more these days and that's where I'm being 'glutened', but such small amounts that I only occasionally react. I know some of it is also to do with eating products labelled 'may contain gluten' by mistake - which in the UK means it probably does! It stands to reason that as I am a coeliac any trace of gluten will cause a response in the gut. My villi are healed and look healthy, but those lymphocytes are present because of the occasional trace amounts of gluten sneaking into my diet. I am going to try not to eat out now until my next blood test in the autumn and read labels properly to avoid the may contain gluten products, and will then report back to see if it has helped!
