Would there be an issue for someone to by pass the host and go straight to the wine? I was thinking not, but a friend said no.
 
No, one is free to do so. They could also ask that a “gluten-free” host be set aside for them, if the parish has any (it has a very low amount of gluten- only what’s necessary for the host to remain bread).

There are low gluten hosts available. I am wondering if they went up for the wine only if that would be an issue.

I’ve never heard of this being an issue, and I’m a former Sacristan. There are some who have zero tolerance for gluten and cannot receive even the low gluten hosts, so they consume just the Precious Blood.

No, you’re free to decline the host just as you’re free to decline the Precious Blood.

Never met one of those. I know someone who had celiac disease for years and didn’t know it until having a crisis and taken to the ER. So seems to me all hosts are low gluten.
 
Not a problem.

I used to go to church with a lady who had an extremely severe gluten intolerance. Father always made sure she was the first to receive from the cup (we had one large chalice and then multiple small cups) to ensure there was no trace of gluten in it.

Not all of them, no. Though I imagine that since different groups make them, they may have varying amounts of gluten. You can tell a host is gluten free just by looking at it: no tan color at all, it’s basically pure white.
 
I only receive the wine. Gluten-free hosts are appropriate if you are Celiac, but if you have a non-Celiac wheat allergy, then the small amount of wheat in the host is not doable.
 
Yah I don’t know I don’t go to the novus ordo mass. At the traditional mass there a couple people who go up and receive the precious blood after everyone else has cleared the altar railing.
 
I started attending it but I wouldn’t say I am a regular.
 
No. There’s the Canon of Mass. Only one Eucharistic Prayer. Someone said it is now called Eucharistic prayer 1 or something. That’s why I was so shocked when I was at the novus ordo and it was a eucharistic prayer I had never heard of.

No I was raised traditional Catholic. Not outside the Church.

Personally I think it is a fad. All of a sudden everyone is allergic to gluten.

I’m not a gluten expert at all. I have been told that the grains have been genetically altered to have bigger yields, to be resistant to disease, and they get sprayed with chemicals. Along with everything else we put in our bodies, like fumes from cars, and indoor air quality, it seems to me something has got to give. If someone removes gluten from their diet and feels a lot better, that is a pretty easy fix compared to something like diabetes. With pollution and plastics, and poor eating habits, our health is on the decline.
 
I don’t understand. The Society has a chapel an hour or so from me I just don’t feel like driving that far every Sunday. What are you speaking of under the bishop we always pray for the pope and the bishop at the society masses. I agree with most of their views and love the homilies but I also realise the church is just as holy as it ever was. There nothing wrong with their mass they use the 1962 missal which from what someone said in my other post is called the extraordinary form and is totally legal in the Church. I’m sorry I just don’t understand what you mean. I have close friendship with many of the priests in the society why are you telling me I am not in the church?
 
Sorry I responded before I read this last post. I don’t know anything about this I’ll have to research it further regarding being legitimate. Thank you for your charity though. And sorry I was kind of sheltered as a youth home schooled and not to much in regards to being able to go online freely. I go to a catholic university but it doesn’t offer the form I grew up with so I gave it a shot a couple weeks ago and went twice now but like I said it is very foreign to me right now but it is nice meeting new other young Catholics.
