Sorry if this is a rehashed question, but I haven't been able to find an
answer in my reading. I understand that many celiacs are also sensitive or
intolerant of other foods like corn, soy, dairy, etc. My question is whether
this means that the villi are damaged by these substances, just as they are
from wheat, oats, barley and rye, or if they "only" cause discomfort without
villi damage. On the same note, I understand that because many
newly-diagnosed celiacs are temorarily lactose-intolerant until the lining
regenerates, is it damaging to ingest lactose while the lining is reqrowing,
or is it just a matter of discomfort?

Thanks.
