Gluten is a type of protein present in wheat, rye, and barley, composed of glutenin and gliadin. While a staple in many diets, it poses significant health risks for individuals with celiac disease or gluten intolerance. Consuming gluten can lead to symptoms such as bloating, diarrhea, gas, vomiting, migraines, and joint pain. To manage these conditions, doctors often recommend a gluten-free diet. Gluten-free foods are formulated to exclude gluten, making them easier to digest and less likely to cause intestinal inflammation and gastric issues. This dietary approach is crucial for maintaining digestive health and alleviating symptoms associated with gluten sensitivity, promoting overall well-being for affected individuals.
