What foods contain gluten and aren safe for people with celiac disease?
People with celiac disease must avoid foods containing gluten, but it’s not always easy to detect. Many foods that don’t appear to contain gluten actually do. Other gluten-free foods can become contaminated if prepared on the same surfaces as foods containing gluten. Unfortunately, even trace amounts of gluten can trigger the immune system reaction and damage the intestine. Here are some foods to avoid: All wheat products, such as • Farina • Graham flour • Semolina • Durum • Bulgur • Kamut • Kasha • Matzo meal • Spelt • Triticale Barley Rye Oats — because they usually have been processed with foods containing gluten, and therefore become contaminated.
