Sourdough Not Celiac Safe Myth
Sourdough not celiac safe myth: fermentation does not make wheat bread safe for celiac—only GF flours and certified processes belong in medical GF plans.
Sourdough not celiac safe myth busts the idea that long fermentation breaks gluten enough for celiac disease—fermentation lowers gluten content in some breads but not to safe levels for biopsy-confirmed celiac. Wheat allergy and NCGS have different thresholds; do not extrapolate social media posts to medical celiac.
True GF sourdough uses non-wheat flour and certified ingredients. Restaurants marketing fermented artisan loaves still use wheat flour.
