I don't know if my husband would be labeled a gluten-free trend dieter, but I don't view him as such. He can eat gluten, but since my symptoms are so extreme we removed it and corn another intolerance entirely from the home. Including his beer he drinks Daura Damn.

My son has my issues as well that revealed themselves after we removed the items from my diet post gluten challenge. I often made one dinner free of all my intolerances and quickly the symptoms manifested when he was exposed to those foods. It showed on his skin as well.

My daughter is gluten-free in the house since we had to remove it. She has eaten it a few times this year away from home, but determined after a Halloween pizza party it is problematic. She was home sick for 3 days after utterly fatigued with headaches (two of my many symptoms) no other cold/virus symptoms. The few times before she felt a bit off but didn't want to assume gluten. This last time she said she knew. She determined the prior times it was one piece of pizza and she was a bit off just thought she was tired, this last time she consumed pizza and pretzels and knew.

One thought is maybe some may live with a celiac or NCGS loved one in a completely gluten-free household. They adhere to the diet strictly for a few months etc then for work or social event eat gluten on a night out away from home.

My husband did it a few times and actually found he prefers maintainbig gluten-free options but will eat out for work events as he does not need to worry about cc. He may partake in Mexican or Chinese food but he stated he orders gluten-free dishes like rice noodles or burrito bowls minus flour tortillas etc. His boss and coworkers now know he eats gluten-free and they all select a restaurant with gluten-free options.

He converted by default. And ironically he has had more coworker acceptance than I have in the past.

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
