I started a gluten free cottage home bakery years ago, there were none, and I started making dedicated gluten free goods and selling at farmers markets. Later transitioned to grain free and gluten free, and now mostly do keto versions of stuff so I can also enjoy them.
This year I founded a new company for doing catering and am getting a food truck next year to start a dedicated gluten free food truck and catering service with a focus on Paleo diet with Stir Fry, Bunless Burgers, and breakfast menus. We tried some other things but was not cost effective enough to cover overhead.

Business really depends on location, when I did a plain focus on gluten free baking in a small town with only a few other people on the diet sales just covered my own food expenses on top of what I sold. Let me live and survive but no huge income. The change to more of a Paleo based catering seems to take off, just hit and miss with weather ruining several events this month.

You could also look at being a health coach? Do be careful with all theses areas, know what your doing and take precautions and cover your self for liability issues. Always have disclosure and be upfront and truthful.

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
