Gluten is a protein composite that can be
found in wheat and related grains, like barley and rye. It doesn't
dissolve when placed in water, adds texture to baked products and is
used as a thickener, flavor enhancer and binder. Can be found in many
staple foods. Gluten alone is not bad for your health. Nevertheless,
there are people who have difficulties digesting gluten or develop
gluten sensitivity so they must avoid it. For those that suffer from an
inherited digestive disorder called celiac or for those with gluten
intolerance, the available treatment at this time is a strict
gluten-free vegetarian diet.
