I am a student at Lehigh University in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. I have a gluten-free diet and am interested in learning more about the Celiac lifestyle. I've written an article about the difficulties of being Celiac in regards to social life, with a ...

I don't get it. Just because you are gluten free, does not prevent you from cooking for other people... it doesn't prevent you from drinking beer, if that is your "thing..." it just means that you are selecting and cooking with different ingredients, using different recipes, perhaps using different kitchen utensils, or bringing your own booze to a tailgate. Not all gluten free bread is dry and hard... good grief. Socializing is not just eating with "the herd."

I find it just takes a little thought and a bit more work, when I go to someone's house, I take my own food. I can still socialize and most people don't even notice. when people come to my house, they get gluten-free food, again, most don't even notice.

      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.
