What is gluten?


So, the word that is buzzing so thick and fast today around the world is the general term for a group of proteins found in grains, such as barley, wheat, and rye. Gluten considerable work as a glue that holds the grain together and assists it to keep its shape.


It can generally be found in the dough, pasta, bread, cereals, baked goods and so on. Moreover, it may also be found in unsuspecting stuff like soy sauce, cross-contaminated oats, deli meats, condiments, salad dressings, alcohol, candy, fried foods, cheese, supplements, medications, cosmetics, etc.


Why does gluten consider part of the problem despite nutritional facts?

Hence using gluten-free recipes or sweets should be evaluated according to the individual requirement.
