Gluten Free Diet

Gluten Free Diet live healthy with free gluten

"If you have coeliac disease, your immune system reacts to gluten and leads to damage to the lining of your gut. This causes symptoms of coeliac disease, including bloating, diarrhoea, nausea, tiredness and headaches. This only happens if gluten is eaten. By avoiding all gluten (some people also need to avoid oats), your gut can heal and your symptoms should improve. The gluten free diet is the only treatment for coeliac disease. On the gluten free diet you can eat any naturally @gluten free foods@, such as: meat fish fruit and vegetables rice potatoes lentils. You can also eat processed foods which don't contain gluten, such as ready meals and soups. Our Food and Drink Directory lists thousands of these. Some ingredients are confusing as they can be made from wheat but the final ingredient is gluten free, for example glucose syrup. Read more about information on labels and ingredients like this."
