Gluten-free living

Are there any exceptions when eating with celiac disease?

No, with this disease no exceptions are allowed! The rule is to always remain gluten free, because your intestinal villi and immune system react to gluten anyway, even if you do not notice it, or at least not immediately. For example, even if everything feels OK at first, your immune system still reacts and the intestinal villi can become inflamed. It should be clear that you can permanently damage your intestines with food containing gluten.   In the long run, your intestine will not be able to absorb vital nutrients very well. The more exceptions you allow, the more the mucous membrane of the small intestine will suffer. This can lead to malnutrition, which can lead to further symptoms and secondary diseases. For unbridled fun in everyday life over the long term, we strongly recommend avoiding food containing gluten. Nowadays alternative forms of nutrition are actually in vogue and your friends will surely enjoy tasting your food!
