Most people believe that it&rsquo;s safe for everyone say for those with celiac-related diseases, while some believe that it&rsquo;s bad for everybody else.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although the description makes following a gluten-free diet seem simple, wheat and gluten are far more common ingredients than most people think.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An example of this is the fact that besides the usual cakes and cereal we think of, wheat can be found in hotdogs and ice cream, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For reference, here&rsquo;s the list of foods you need to avoid if you want have a gluten-free diet:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Wheat<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Barley<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Spelt<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Rye<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bread<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pasta<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cereals<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Beer<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cakes<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cookies<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pastries<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>As you can see, a lot of items on this list are common foods that a lot of people consume on a regular basis.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are also gluten-free grains that people can buy if they can&rsquo;t eat gluten or want to cut down on it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These gluten-free grains are the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Oats<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Rice<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Quinoa<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Flax<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Millet<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sorghum<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tapioca<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Buckwheat<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Arrowroot<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Amaranth<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Now here are the foods that naturally don&rsquo;t have any gluten. So unless you need to avoid them for some other reason, you should still be able to have them even if you go for a gluten-free diet.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Examples of gluten-free foods are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Meat<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Eggs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dairy products<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fish<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Seafood<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fruits<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Vegetables<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Legumes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Nuts<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tubers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Generally, choosing naturally gluten-free food will always be better than choosing processed but gluten-free products. It&rsquo;ll be easier to avoid added sugar and refined grains that way. Processed gluten-free foods also tend to have fewer nutrients than naturally gluten-free food.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_drinks_are_gluten-free\"><\/span><strong>What drinks are gluten-free? <\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Although most drinks are gluten-free, several beers and malt beverages may contain gluten. To be considered gluten-free,&nbsp;products must comprise just under 20 ppm of gluten, according to the FDA. In particular, gluten-free drinks are beneficial to people with celiac disease or gluten intolerance. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whereas some people may feel good&nbsp;after consuming gluten-free beverages, while others claim there are no changes.

These health reasons usually include one of these three: Celiac disease, Non-celiac gluten sensitivity, or wheat allergy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>People who have these conditions must observe a gluten-free diet in order to manage the symptoms and function normally.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_Celiac_Disease\"><\/span>What is Celiac Disease?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Celiac disease is a condition wherein the body&rsquo;s immune system treats gluten like a foreign body. <\/strong>When that happens, the body starts attacking the small intestine and its lining to get rid of the gluten. Hence it&rsquo;s considered an autoimmune disease.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The result is a damaged small intestine that may cause digestive problems and other issues such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Abdominal pain<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bloating<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Diarrhea<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Constipation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Headache<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fatigue<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Rashes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Depression<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Unexplained weight loss<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Celiac disease affects <a href=\"https:\/\/www.beyondceliac.org\/celiac-disease\/facts-and-figures\/\">only 1%<\/a> of the American population. That makes it both the least common and most severe manifestation of gluten sensitivity. Many people who have this condition experience digestive symptoms, but some don&rsquo;t. This makes the Celiac disease difficult to diagnose and detect early.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Non-Celiac_Gluten_Sensitivity\"><\/span>Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Non-celiac gluten sensitivity is when the patient&rsquo;s symptoms don&rsquo;t qualify for Celiac disease, but are still negative reactions to gluten in the body.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Researchers don&rsquo;t know how exactly to define this or how many people have it, so there&rsquo;s some debate as to whether or not this is a legitimate condition.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Regardless, it&rsquo;s a diagnosis that&rsquo;s given to anyone whose body reacts negatively to gluten but doesn&rsquo;t have Celiac disease.

But in some people, wheat allergy is only triggered if they exercise a few hours after consuming gluten.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whichever way the allergy triggers, it results in the body responding in ways that result in congestion and breathing problems among other things.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The symptoms of wheat allergy are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Swelling in the mouth or throat<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hives<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Headache<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Difficulty breathing<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cramps<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Nausea<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Vomiting<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Diarrhea&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><em>Anaphylaxis&nbsp;<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Anaphylaxis is a life-threatening condition that is sometimes caused by wheat allergy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides the other wheat allergy symptoms, Anaphylaxis also causes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Tightness in the throat<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Chest pain<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Trouble swallowing<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pale, blue skin color<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dizziness or fainting<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>It&rsquo;s recommended to call 911 or any emergency numbers if ever you experience or see someone with symptoms of Anaphylaxis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moreover, wheat allergy is most commonly seen in infants and children because of their immature immune systems. However, adults can develop this as well as a result of cross-sensitivity to grass pollen.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You could also develop wheat allergy if you have family members who also have it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_a_Gluten-Free_Diet_Good_for_You\"><\/span>Is a Gluten-Free Diet Good for You?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For people with Celiac disease, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mayoclinic.org\/healthy-lifestyle\/nutrition-and-healthy-eating\/in-depth\/gluten-free-diet\/art-20048530\">gluten-free diet<\/a> is non-negotiable. Their bodies can&rsquo;t digest gluten safely and so have to adjust their diet to remain healthy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>People with non-Celiac gluten sensitivity may need to go gluten-free for a while, but can stop if they retest their sensitivity and get negative results. There&rsquo;s some research that indicates that their gluten sensitivity can go away after 1-2 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, this isn&rsquo;t true for everyone with non-Celiac gluten sensitivity. If the tests never come back negative, then they&rsquo;ll end up having to keep the diet forever just like those diagnosed with Celiac disease.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some also choose to adopt a gluten-free diet in order to lose weight and experience other health benefits. It&rsquo;s also believed that a gluten-free diet can improve gastrointestinal health and athletic performance in people who don&rsquo;t have any kind of gluten sensitivity.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, these claims are not backed by sufficient research as of the writing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Are_There_Risks_in_a_Gluten-Free_Diet\"><\/span>Are There Risks in a Gluten-Free Diet?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Adopting a gluten-free diet can leave you deficient in some vitamins. <\/strong>A lot of the food you&rsquo;ll need to cut out in order to follow the diet contains important nutrients, so it&rsquo;s important to research good substitutes during the planning stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The nutrients you need to look for alternative sources for are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Iron<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Calcium<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fiber<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Thiamin (Vitamin B1)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Riboflavin (Vitamin B2)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Niacin (Vitamin B3)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Folate (Vitamin B9)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Gluten-free products often have different nutrient levels from the products they&rsquo;re replacing. For example,<strong> some gluten-free products also have higher sugar and fat content than what they&rsquo;re substituting for.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So it&rsquo;ll be very important that you look very carefully at the food labels and nutrition facts before buying anything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_a_Gluten-Free_Diet_For_You\"><\/span>Is a Gluten-Free Diet For You?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Like many other things, that&rsquo;s up to your circumstances and personal preference. If you don&rsquo;t have a health condition that mandates that you incorporate it into your lifestyle, then you can choose any diet you want for your lifestyle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But if there&rsquo;s going to be another thing to consider when thinking over a gluten-free diet, it&rsquo;s definitely the budget that comes with it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Gluten-free alternatives are often more expensive than common food and drinks. <\/strong>More so if you&rsquo;re buying gluten-free versions of food that normally have gluten in their ingredients. <strong>This might make budgeting difficult depending on your financial situation.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What would it really be like though?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"We Try To Quit Gluten for 30 Days\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/TP_53kb-08Y?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&rsquo;re curious as to what trying a gluten-free diet might be like, I&rsquo;d recommend watching this video.
