GLUTEN FREE CROSS CONTAMINATION

Cross contamination and eating gluten free is something people know even less about than Celiac disease (CD). But it is one of the main reasons people still feel sick within the first months of adhering to a strictly gluten free diet. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disease that is caused by a miscommunication within the two parts of our immune system, the innate and the adaptive. The innate is the first line of protection when an invader is detected and defends the body against bacteria and viruses and many more toxic pathogens than we know. But when a toxic material is detected that the innate cannot protect the body against, the adaptive part of the immune system is called to come and destroy it. This is where the miscommunication occurs with Celiac disease, instead of the adaptive attacking the gluten invader, it starts attacking itself.
