- About:
- I'm Sarah. I'm a Brit who fled to Portugal on account of Brexit, increasing intolerance and the British weather. I like climbing (although I can't do much any more for health reasons) and sailing. This is a Friendica account. Friendica is kinda like Facebook as Mastodon is kinda like Twitter, except they can talk to each other.

in reply to Sarah Brown • •People think coeliac disease, or even non coeliac gluten intolerance, is like lactose intolerance: painful and annoying but ultimately a “choice”.
It isn’t. If you are sensitised to it in that way, gluten will make your immune system attack your own body. It’s not nice stuff.

in reply to ⁂iwein⁂ • •@iwein 🏴☠️🏳️🌈🇺🇦🇪🇺 I have non coeliac gluten sensitivity (if I eat it, I get rheumatoid arthritis), and my partner has coeliac disease. The prevalence of what we call, “Los Angeles Gluten Free” types is something we regard as a bit of a mixed blessing. On the one hand, it creates a market for gluten free food because 90% of most supermarkets are simply off limits to us.
But on the other, it creates establishments which claim to sell/serve “gluten free food” which is nothing of the kind.
The worst offenders store their gluten “free” and wheat products on the same shelf and use the same utensils to handle them!

in reply to ⁂iwein⁂ • •@iwein 🏴☠️🏳️🌈🇺🇦🇪🇺 I would, however, note that it’s perfectly normal to buy gluten free and gluten containing produce in the same shop. Our household has a gluten free kitchen, but for the one member of it who does eat gluten, who has her own grill, we also buy gluten containing food.
Households contain more than one person, quite often.

in reply to Sarah Brown • • •Wasn’t aware of exactly how bad it can get, but anyone talking about medical issues as a “choice” can fuck right off.
Also auto immune is really scary shit:( Few things can unravel your life and turn it into a living hell as your immune system turning on you.

in reply to Gen X-Wing • •@Breadbin The thing with coeliac is that the autoimmune target is your gut lining.
So you die slowly of malnutrition.
