Cast iron and gluten cleanup

I read some old post that is now closed to replies that said we should use oven cleaner on our cast iron and then self clean in the oven to remove the gluten. Oven cleaner is ridiculously toxic. Why on Earth would we do that and then have that residual in our food? Isn't that just as, if not more dangerous to our health?

I’ve personally never worried about cleaning my oven to avoid gluten, but clearly some celiacs do. I agree that commercial oven cleaners can be toxic, especially to the environment.

I think he was talking about his cast iron pans.  I have just put them in the oven on clean and then Re- season them.

Cleaning cycle on the oven, 500F+ can destroy the gluten proteins, scrub with dawn repeat if you wish then rinse and re-season.
I would not use oven cleaner on cast iron, the pours surface could retain the chemicals, and I am unsure how they burn off. -_- If you really gotta clean cast iron I might say a sandblaster/beadblaster, then wash and oven method for residual protein destruction.

I’ve never done this and doubt it’s necessary.

      symptoms.

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Hi, @Rebeccaj, Those Villa that get damaged by eating gluten are the same billion that absorb nutrients from our food.  Damaged villa can't absorb nutrients, vitamins and minerals well.  If we don't get sufficient nutrients, our body can't function properly.  We can get brain fog, pins and needles or neuropathy, feeling off balance, and even worsening digestive symptoms. Talk to your doctor or dietician about taking vitamin and mineral supplements while healing.  The gluten free diet can be low in nutrients, especially if you eat gluten free facsimile processed foods.  Gluten containing breads have vitamins added to them to replace those lost in processing.  Gluten free facsimile foods usually are not enriched nor fortified with vitamins.   Taking a B Complex, Benfotiamine, Vitamin D, and magnesium help the digestive tract heal, lowers histamine, and regulates the immune system.

      KAN‑101 is still very much in development and being actively studied. It has not been dropped—rather, it is advancing through Phases 1 and 2, moving toward what could become the first disease‑modifying treatment for celiac disease. https://anokion.com/press_releases/anokion-announces-positive-symptom-data-from-its-phase-2-trial-evaluating-kan-101-for-the-treatment-of-celiac-disease/
