What is Gluten?

For anyone not familiar with gluten intolerance or sensitivity and celiac disease, gluten is the substance in wheat, rye and barley that causes illness in those people who are sensitive to it. For those with celiac disease, it causes an autoimmune reaction that attacks and destroys the lining of the small intestine. This leads to malabsorption and malnutrition.

There is no cure for celiac disease, however it can be controlled. For most people the body will heal the damage once they go on (and as as long as they stay on) a gluten free diet.

Flours made of other grains, like rice flour, corn flour, amaranth, quinoa, and sorghum can be substituted for wheat in baking. There are mixes for making your own bread and cakes, or you can use the free recipes on this website. There are many varieties of gluten free foods available now as well, including bread and even bagels. The gluten free diet is easier to start now than it's ever been.
