Why is gluten free important?
Gluten is the common name of the proteins in wheat and all grains, belonging to the wheat family. Gluten intolerance or Celiac disease is an inflammation of the intestines, which interferes with proper nutrient absorption. According to latest data there are more than 2.5 million undiagnosed gluten intolerance sufferers in the US alone. Many people, allergic to gluten do not have any symptoms, but those who do often suffer from diarrhea, fatigue, even fat loss. Diagnosing the condition, and subsequently following a gluten-free diet for life provides a permanent solution to many people’s health problems.
