Jane07 My first question are you Celiac or Have a Non Celiac Gluten Allergy? If yes to either you should be on a gluten-free Diet. Thats without ingesting Gluten of any kind as well as you should avoid handling anything containing Gluten. If you do have blood tests for Celiacs while consuming Gluten then yes your blood work will come back showing it! If you stay Strictly gluten-free no cheating including the bread you ate today as well as the butter if it’s not gluten-free which I am thinking it probably was not you will not only test positive but if your a Celiac you are doing way more than that by consuming gluten in any amount small or large! You will damage your lower intestine and cause Villous Atrophy which is flattening of your Villi where you will not absorb vitamins, minerals and all nutrients needed! You should stay clear of Gluten which means being gluten-free for life! If I were you, look up Celiacs Disease and educate yourself with the facts! I am a Celiac myself and got the diagnosis over 20yrs ago and have been completely gluten-free ever since no so called diet, it is a Lifestyle and for a Purpose! I hope this helps answer your question!

You can inhale microscopic gluten particles that get airborne you can’t even see that if your a Celiac could cause a reaction to it! Were you touching the bread, butter and whatever other foods you handed out without food handlers gloves? If so you risk absorption through your skin as well!

Hi Jane07, Yes if I were you and worked in kitchen preparing meals as well as serving them on a continuous daily I would assume all day basis at least 8 hrs or more I being Celiac would wear food handlers gloves and also a mask to cover your nose and mouth to eliminate inhaling anything gluten that could get airborne such as wheat flour and any kind of flour that may not be gluten-free! Also just cutting non gluten free bread, rolls, cakes exct. can become airborne where you may have a chance to get them into your nasal passage and or mouth which may be a small amount but if your Celiac is sensitive to the smallest amounts of gluten which mine is then over the period of a normal work day in that kitchen could have you ingesting gluten unknowingly! I believe they have food mask you would have to look into this yourself maybe they have them in the kitchen you work in? Good Luck☘️I know Celiacs is tough to educate yourself on what is and what isn’t gluten free as well as what it is or isn’t in ingredient wise! Toothpaste, Body Lotions, make up products and so on can and do contain it as well not just food or beverages! We Celiacs are all in this together remember that and all of us are learning everyday something new about it! Stay Strong💪

If I understand your question, you're asking if handling gluten while working food service will be a problem with your Celiac? Can't say for sure, but I doubt it - just be careful to wash your hands before eating and make sure you're not touching your mouth or face with hands with crumbs on them. I make sandwiches for my gluten eating kids all the time.

Stay Strong💪It is not something I would wish on anyone. We are in this together, your not alone so please don’t feel that way! I know 20yrs ago I did and no one seemed to know anything about Celiacs me being one but especially GI Dr’s so I ended up going to a group of Celiac Specialist in Charlottesville Va called UVA they were incredible! Dr. Shelia Crowe was head Dr there at the time and she had a great team of well educated Dr’s working hand in hand with her! She is now out in California with the Celiac Foundation if I’m not mistaken? I lived in Norfolk Va back when I got my diagnosis per bloodwork then confirmed by Endoscopy biopsy and I had to drive 4-1/2hrs one way to go to UVA but it was worth getting real info by Dr’s who didn’t look at Celiacs like it was all in my head! Good Luck☘️we all need it and more!
