It would take some kind of miracle to eliminate gluten from Jesus's body or to make the faithful gluten tolerant. You'd think an all-knowing god would have prepared for this.

Vatican Refuses to Go Gluten Free at Communion

The unleavened bread that Roman Catholics use in the celebration of Mass must contain some gluten, even if only a trace amount, according to a new Vatican directive.

The issue is especially urgent for people with celiac disease, a gastrointestinal immune disorder that causes stomach pain, diarrhea and weight loss and that can lead to serious complications, or for those with other digestive conditions that make them vulnerable even to small amounts of gluten.

Gluten is what gives Jesus his magical powers. It's kind of like what the yellow sun does for Superman.
