SECTION 1

GLUTEN

Gluten is a composite of storage proteins termed prolamins and
glutelins that is stored together with starch in the endosperm
(which nourishes the embryonic plant during germination) of
various cereal (grass) grains. It is found in wheat, barley, rye,
[malt] and related species and hybrids (such as spelt, khorasan,
emmer, einkorn, triticale, kamut, etc.), as well as products
derived from these grains (such as breads and malts). Glutens, and
most especially the Triticeae glutens, are appreciated for their
viscoelastic properties, which give dough its elasticity, helping
it rise and keep its shape and often leaving the final product with
a chewy texture.

Wheat, barley, rye and oat prolamins are respectively known as
gliadins, hordeins, secalins and avenins; these protein classes
are often collectively referred to as gluten. Wheat glutelins are
called glutenin. True gluten is limited to the grains listed above.
The storage proteins in maize and rice are sometimes called glutens,
but they differ from true gluten.

WHAT
IS
GLUTEN?

Gluten is a general name for the proteins found in wheat (wheatberries,
durum, emmer, semolina, spelt, farina, farro, graham, KAMUT® khorasan
wheat and einkorn), rye, barley and triticale – a cross between wheat
and rye. Gluten helps foods maintain their shape, acting as a glue that
holds food together. Gluten can be found in many types of foods, even
ones that would not be expected.

GLUTEN FREE
DIET

To follow a gluten-free diet, you must avoid wheat and some other grains,
while choosing substitutes that provide nutrients for a healthy diet.

A gluten-free diet is a diet that excludes the protein gluten. Gluten is
found in grains such as wheat, barley, rye, and a cross between wheat and
rye called triticale.

A gluten-free diet is essential for managing signs and symptoms of celiac
disease and other medical conditions associated with gluten. A gluten-free
diet is, however, popular among people without gluten-related medical
conditions. The claimed benefits of the diet are improved health, weight
loss and increased energy.

WHAT
IS
CELIAC DISEASE?

Celiac disease (also referred to as celiac sprue, non-tropical sprue,
and gluten-sensitive enteropathy) is a serious, genetic autoimmune
disorder triggered by consuming a protein called gluten, which is
found in wheat, barley and rye. When a person with celiac eats gluten,
the protein interferes with the absorption of nutrients from food by
damaging a part of the small intestine called villi. Damaged villi
make it nearly impossible for the body to absorb nutrients into the
bloodstream, leading to malnourishment and a host of other problems
including some cancers, thyroid disease, osteoporosis, infertility
and the onset of other autoimmune diseases.
