Gluten & Wheat-Free

Wheat allergy refers to adverse reactions to proteins found in wheat, including alibumin, globuin, gliadin and glutenin. Gluten intolerance, also called Celiac Disease, is an extreme sensitivity to the protein gluten, which is found in wheat, barley and rye.

Celiac disease is an inherited, autoimmune disease in which the lining of the small intestine is damaged from eating gluten and these other proteins. There is no cure, a gluten free diet must be followed for life.
