yes, there is some research, but much of it is being done overseas. there's not a lot of research on it - 'cause there's not a lot of money. but if you've got a few million to donate to the research cause... :lol: it doesn't help that there isn't a huge push to find a pill or something, because we already have a "cure" - the gluten-free diet. (it "cures" the villious atrophy, which is the disease itself. curing the genetic cause of the reaction to gluten, however, will require a lot more work in gene therapy.)

At my last support group meeting a woman was talking about research being done. . .I don't recall it being overseas. . .but it was more abut vaccinations to help lessen reactions. . I think. . .and work to a cure.

Oooooh.....lessen reactions......that sounds GREAT! I'd be leary of a "miracle pill" that allowed the ingestion of wheat, but I think a pill to lessen reactions would be great!......especially since some people get so bad with gluten that they need to go to the hospital..........that's terrific, thanks for sharing, Kristina

      Welcome to the forum, @yellowstone! The most common ones seem to be dairy (casein), oats, eggs, soy and corn. "Formed" meat products (because of the "meat glue" used to hold their shape) is a problem for some. But it can be almost anything on an individual basis as your sensitivity to rice proves, since rice is uncommonly a "cross reactor" for celiacs. Some celiacs seem to not do well with any cereal grains.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.
