Kissing someone drinking beer

I'm newly diagnosed with Celiac and i have zero symptoms except dermatitis - and now starting to develop a few other symptoms but nothing like the dermatitis.  Having said that, I'm being SUPER CONSCIOUS of eliminating all gluten but my friends ask if I kiss someone that is drinking beer is that considered "cross-contamination" and could cause me to obtain gluten by kissing?  What's your thoughts?

I make sure I don't kiss my S.O. Unless he's brushed his teeth. Food from his glutinous meals could cross contaminate me. I don't share straws or drinks with anyone eating or drinking gluten. I'm extremely paranoid about being glutened and I'm pretty sensitive to it so it's best to be on the safe side.

I second that, no kissing until teeth are brushed with gluten free toothpaste and mouthwash. Also if kissing a woman make sure lipstick, gloss, balm are gluten free. My S.O. treats it like a severe food allergy and our home is gluten free.

Yeah this is a common issue it was discussed you should not kiss anyone that has eaten gluten in 24-36hours. I forgot where the article on this was but I was thinking there was some thing from a study done. -_-  I do not think brushing would be enough. I would also be afraid of reintroduction of gluten to the mouth with a contaminated tooth brush but I could be paranoid I always get a new one after a issue with a gluten CC.

You didn't ask...but no licking either unless they have gluten free body products on...blush.

      I was taking medicine for sibo but it was not agreeing with my stomach at all.Was on gabapentin but it amps me up.I was taking in morning because it wasn't allowing me to sleep.This has always been an issue with medicine and me.Even going to dentist, the good shot that numbs you once, I can't take because it makes my heart beat fast and I  get the shakes.I have to take the crappy stuff and get injected always more than 4 times always.Its infuriating

      I showed one doctor I went to once because completely clueless of celiac disease and yes that one was connected to a well known hospital and she said oh thats just a bunch of people that think they are celiac coming together. I said um no they have doctors and knowledge behind what is being written. So bay area is Downplaying this site! SADLY

      If you successfully digest gluten with enzyme supplements so it won’t give you side effects, your challenge won’t be worthwhile because the digested fragments of gluten also won’t stimulate antibody production or cause intestinal damage.

      Thanks for the resource! I will check it out!

      You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
