    I wish. My kids are coeliac i.e., the presence of gluten in food causes the body to attack its own gut.

    I’d love if there were a vaccine that they could take once, or even every several months that would let them eat what they wanted. It would have to be something that either turns off the errant immune response altogether or teaches the body to tolerate / ignore gluten proteins.

      It’s coming! I’m confident in my lifetime they’ll have it solved. They’re actually working on an “anti-vaccine” that corrects celiac/diabetes. I’m also interested because I have 1 celiac and 1 diabetes. Celiac sucks.
