Coeliac vs. gluten free
Discussion
I'm interested in gaining some real world information about coeliac disease and self diagnosed or lifestyle gluten free diets.
For example, I have a lifestyle GF person will not eat a GF product made in a kitchen that contains gluten as it is not certified GF or eat food dried in the same oil as an item containing gluten. But, a person diagnosed with coeliacs disease who is happy to do so.
I know there is not a finite answer but just how much gluten can a person with coeliacs disease actually tolerate without ill effect?

Thanks for the replies. It's amazing the variation in answers I get from people about this.
They range from "100% GF, no cross contamination etc" through to "if the cake is nice they can have it". And that's from the same people asked months apart.
Like a lot of people with allergens and medically attested conditions and illnesses it is bloody annoying when it's "adopted" by others.
