Diet Chart For gluten free

Last Updated: Sep 25, 2024

About

Topic Image

Gluten is a mixture of protein that is found in wheat and in related cereals like barley. Ryle gluten is what gives the dough its elasticity, and the final product, a chewy texture. There are three categories of gluten-related disease that brought gluten into scrutiny. The Celiac Disease is autoimmune where the individual's own body attacks the intestinal cells. The Wheat Allergy is not gluten-specific but an individual might be allergic to one of the hundred proteins in wheat. About 2-6% suffer from the Non- Celiac Gluten disorder that leads to intestinal and/or extraintestinal symptoms. Although, the mechanism is not well understood.

Gluten-Free diet excludes the protein called gluten. The gluten-free diet is advised because of the finding that gluten increases the gut permeability that causes symptoms like diarrhoea and bloating. Gluten-free products are available in the market. However, it is advised to have natural gluten-free food like rice, corn, soy, potato, beans, millet etc. Celiac disease patients need to be extra careful and should only consume gluten-free food items.

Food Items To Limit

Avoid all foods and drinks containing the following:

  1. Wheat
  2. Barley
  3. Rye
  4. Triticale (a cross between wheat and rye)
  5. Oats (in some cases)

While oats are naturally gluten-free, they may be contaminated during production with wheat, barley or rye. Oats and oat products labeled gluten-free have not been cross-contaminated. Some people with celiac disease, however, cannot tolerate the gluten-free labeled oats.

Do's And Dont's

  1. For your baked goods, choose gluten free flours that are high in protein and fiber.
  2. Choose healthy pastas that are made with quinoa or brown rice flour.
  3. Get plenty of fiber.
  4. Consider working with a registered dietitian.

Don'ts:

  1. Assume that if a label says gluten free, that food is healthy.
  2. Hop on board the gluten-free train just to fit in.
  3. Opt for a diet of gluten-free processed foods.
  4. Ignore the risks of going gluten-free
