Barley, wheat and rye have "wheat gluten",

For our audience Australian researchers determined there are just 3 small peptides on the gluten protein molecule that cause all the trouble. 1 of them is present in all three of the named grains. 1 is present on just two. Another 1 is present in just one.

That demonstrates the cause of the different reactions by different people to each of these grains or combinations of grains.

They're working on a vaccine that reprograms your T-Cells to NOT attack your intestines simply because they detect those peptides. It's undergoing human trials!

There is hope.

I’ve been tested several times in several ways for different forms of celiac and all have come back negative.
