What is the difference between a Wheat Free Diet and a Gluten Free Diet?
Of the two, wheat intolerances are easier to deal with because you just need to eliminate wheat from your diet, but with a gluten intolerance, you’ll need to avoid wheat and other types of foods as well. Gluten is a combination of two proteins, gliadin and glutenin which is found in wheat, barley and rye. This means that to avoid ingesting gluten you need to avoid anything which includes those basic ingredients.
