?: Do you know if the crust on the fried chicken does not contain flour? But if you suspect you have celiac disease, you should consult your doctor about this before embarking on a gluten-free journey.

You decide: If you have CD, every time you consume a gluten product like a flour based sandwich, your body makes new antibodies that attack and injure your gut tissue.The injury is patchwork,like a quilt.When the bad patches get to widespread your symptoms get much worse and problems continue.Only stopping gluten lets your body heal.You need to finish finding out if you have it.If not, no need to avoid gluten
