Wheat Gluten

Last updated : October 4th, 2011
This ingredient is neutral for your health.

Gluten is a protein derived from many cereals, especially wheat.

It is made by washing dough made from wheat flour in water until the starch is rinsed away, leaving only the gluten, which can then be cooked and processed in various ways.

People suffering from coeliac disease have an intolerance to gluten and must go on a gluten-free diet. Intake of gluten results in damage to the mucosa of the small intestine, and as a result normal digestion becomes impossible. After avoiding gluten completely, the intestine will return to functioning normally.

\\People with autism and may also be sensitive to gluten. Another condition that may cause one to follow a gluten-free diet is dermatitis herpetiformis.\\\\
