About Gluten-Free Nutrition
What is Gluten-Free Nutrition?
Gluten is a protein found in wheat, barley, rye, and sometimes oats. A gluten-free diet completely eliminates these grains and uses alternatives like rice, corn, buckwheat, quinoa, and almond flour.
Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that causes intestinal damage from gluten. Gluten sensitivity causes similar symptoms but without damage.
Who Needs It?
- Those diagnosed with celiac disease (mandatory)
- Non-celiac gluten sensitivity
- Wheat allergy
- Some autoimmune diseases (with doctor recommendation)
- Not required for healthy individuals

Things to Watch For
