Immersion Blender ???

 My mother used our immersion blender for making gluten containing soup last year. Since then she used it for a lot of stuff which are naturally gluten free. Does the same rule for utensils , strainers and plastic stuff apply to this too ? ( Our immersion blender is plastic )

Toss it, The thing about immersion blenders is where the shaft goes into the head onit right under the blades. The seal there is not actually 100% liquid proof.....at least not with the higher end cusinart ones. I took the motor fitting piece off mine once to clean it better and found over all the years it had been sucking stuff up into the shaft slowly.......NASTY. Luckily mine is ALWAYS used with gluten free.

I have the Cuisinart blender and still use it with nary a problem.  I always cleaned them well and, quite frankly, unless you used it very often with gluten containing liquids, and the blender is old and questionable, it will be safe.  You don't have to automatically toss something because someone used it once with a forbidden food. 

All the immersion blenders I have seen have a hard plastic casing and, unless they are really scratched up bad which is hard to do with that type of plastic, it should be just fine.

      Welcome to the forum, @LimpToeTheTimeless Bone growth plates close in the late teens to early twenties, so it's doubtful you'll grow much taller, but you may start to bulk up in muscle.  Remember to boost your absorption of vitamins and minerals needed to build muscle by eating a nutritionally dense diet and supplementing with essential vitamins and minerals, especially Thiamine B1, to counteract the malabsorption caused by Celiac Disease. Keep us posted on your progress!

      Fermentation breaks down some of the gluten in wheat. Nowhere enough for a wheat dough to become gluten free, but the gluten may be significantly reduced. I think some pizzerias make the dough the day before and leave it overnight. The longer the microbes are acting on the flour, the better.

      I am M 21 and I diagnosed myself after a week of fasting and slowly reintroducing stuff in my diet except gluten, I had terrible eczema scars ,dandruff and brain fog, now I am free after 6 years of just pain, I am 6'2, will I grow taller? And since I am a gymnast will my muscles grow like quicker, cause before no matter how effort I put in I just couldn't.

      And the fact is, no two celiacs will necessarily respond the same to gluten exposure. Some are "silent" celiacs and don't experience obvious symptoms. But that doesn't mean no harm is being done to their gut. It just means it is subclinical.
