An interesting article. However, your comment about coeliacs being able to eat wheat (ie your bread recipes) if real yeast is used in the bread-making might ring more true if bread was the only food we have problems with. It isn't. It's any food containing the slightest, minuscule amount of gluten, arising from wheat (for man) barley (also for man, and mild drinks) and/ or rye. Products containing yeast (real or synthetic) are often no problem at all, so long as there is no gluten. Gluten-free breads are made with yeast; they just use alternative (gluten and wheat free) flours. It would help if you could amend your article accordingly, as anyone gluten sensitive or coeliac reading it and not fully understanding, is in danger of becoming very ill, including an increase in their chance of developing cancer of the bowel. Thank you.
