Glutened In A Small Dose?

Wondering how many here would have any symptoms if glutened in a small dose, when otherwize maintaining a gluten free diet?

For an example, you ate some chicken that you found out later was prepaired with a little bit of soy sause.

or maybe a salad dressing had some malt vinegar in it?

In other words are some of us more sensitive to gluten than others? Or are there minor or no symptoms

after a small dose of gluten?

First, there are no degrees of celiac.

Some people may react to it and some may not but in both cases the damage is being done even with that small amount of gluten.

I get very bad reactions even to the smallest amount but I know people that don't have any symptoms. You have celiac or you don't and if you have it you have to be 100% gluten free.

The things you are describing from contamination like chicken prepared in soy sauce, etc will cause damage...whether you feel it or not.

Hope this clears some things up for you.

      Be sure to keep eating gluten daily until all testing is completed.  Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      You can always to the gluten challenge later, after your pregnancy, should you need a formal diagnosis. I think it's best to play it safe in this case.

      Very true. I also suffered from candidiasis which had affected my intestines and toes. I think this might have triggered my gluten intolerance/celiac.

      Welcome to the forum community, @Jesmar! The HLA DQ2 and DQ8 genes were the original halotypes identified with the potential to develop celiac disease. Since then, other genes have been discovered that apparently afford a predisposition to celiac disease. As is always the case, these new discoveries are not yet common knowledge and not yet widely dispersed in the medical community. It is not genetically as black and white as we once thought.
