Gluten is a protein that occurs naturally in various grains: wheat, rye, barley, spelled, small spelled, kamut, and oats. But it is also found in all industrial and processed wheat-based products: breads, cakes, pizzas, pies, etc.

In the worst case, we can have celiac disease, which affects 1 in 10 people sensitive to gluten: stomach aches, gas and diarrhea, headaches, tingling, fatigue, muscle aches.

In the long term, gluten protein in people with celiac disease can increase the risk of osteoporosis, infertility, and certain types of cancer. This is one of the reasons people should have a gluten-free diet for life.
