Think about it... the 'body' of Jesus Christ in communion is gluten. A potent lectin capable of producing toxic effects on individuals with certain genetic and/or environmental dispositions.
"Pastors and the faithful are reminded that for bread to be valid matter for the Eucharist, it must be made solely of wheat; contain enough gluten to effect the confection of bread; be free of foreign materials and unaffected by any preparation or baking methods which would alter its nature."*
The answer?
Gluten Free Host, of course!
