For many, the idea of having a few dozen hookworms set up shop in your gut sounds more like a Survivor challenge than a beneficial health therapy, but scientists see a bright future in this human worm farm for treating many chronic conditions.
So it is, fixed. There is lot of celiac treatments in the pipeline, don’t know how close any are to market. Bloody hate it to be honest. Not because there is any gluten food I want, but because of constant having to worry about cross containmination.
Yup it’s the cross contamination that’s the killer.
It would be a nigh-on 99% “treatment” if coeliacs could tolerate tiny amounts of gluten, as it would allow you to just say “swap these ingredients”. Instead you enter a restaurant and you have to have a deep interrogation on how their kitchen functions; what goes where, bla bla. And if I have to explain, even one more time, that gluten doesn’t “burn off in an oven” I’ll scream.
As a Celiac, I’ve been hookworm treatment news loosely:

It’s been noted to have an affect on a range of things, good podcast on it : https://radiolab.org/podcast/91689-parasites
Edit : Fix link!
Your link Is broken I think, even when passing the whole thing.
We’ve got coeliac in the family so I would love to read some encouraging news.

It’s bloody gluten finger food that does my head in. They then touch everything. Nothing is safe.
