Cleaning To Remove Gluten/ice Cream

I have a favorite ice cream place and I recently spoke with the manager. He said their ice cream is all gluten free, however, they use the ice cream maker to make pastry cream which has flour in it. He said it is thoroughly cleaned before they make ice cream. Would you guys trust something like this?

Maybe? It might be one of those hit or miss choices.

If you are pretty sensitive, it might not be worth the risk. Myself, I'd probably pass, because at this point, I'm kinda paranoid.

What does sensitivity even mean? The bottom line is gluten can cause damage even if you dont experience any symptoms, right?

Good question. I hear comments like "A tiny amount of gluten doesn't affect me". I have no symptoms, yet my doctor told me to avoid any amount of gluten. If my symptoms (or lack thereof) are unrelated to the potential damage to my intestines, is it not dangerous to assume anybody can tell they are not being harmed by gluten just because they do not experience symptoms?

      I’ve used tinctures and made my own edibles with gluten-free ingredients to stay safe. Dispensary staff don’t always know about gluten, so I double-check labels or just make my own.

      It's great to hear that there are some good doctors out there, and this is an example of why having a formal diagnosis can definitely be helpful.

      Update: I have a wonderful new gastroenterologist. She wants to be sure there’s nothing more serious, like refractory celiac, going on. She ordered various tests including some micronutrient tests that no one has ever ordered before.  I’m deficient in folate and zinc and starting supplements for both. I’m so glad I decided to go to a new GI!

      Autoimmune diseases tend to cluster. Many of them are found close together on the chromosomes.

      Just giving another update... I was referred to rheumatology, and they suspect that I may also be dealing with fibromyalgia (it has not been formally diagnosed, but just suggested at this point).  So, I am continuing with the anti-inflammatory diet and vitamins and still working to keep getting rid of all these hidden gluten sources, but I also do have another possible explanation for some of the issues that I'm dealing with.
