What does a Gluten-Free diet mean?
A gluten free diet is a diet that contains no gluten containing foods. Gluten is a plant protein found mainly in wheat but also in barley, rye, and oats. Unfortunately, gluten containing additives are used in many foods and medicines. Many people are sensitive or intolerant to gluten. This intolerance to gluten can cause many symptoms of disease. The treatment of celiac disease (severe gluten sensitivity) requires total avoidance of all oral products and food that contain gluten. CarePro Advance Health is pleased to provide customers with a wide variety of gluten-free products. A website with helpful information about gluten allergy and celiac disease is www.celiac.org.
