of the hardest categories from which to stay away. Many treats include flour and other gluten sources.

Don’t get too upset!
I remember when I was first researching which products contain gluten. I was so upset about all the foods that I thought were so great at the time. My disappointed was short lived you’ll be glad to hear. The gluten free industry is exploding at the moment, tons of new businesses are creating really innovative and delicious products for us. Supermarket gluten free sections are growing and every day we are seeing more and more options to diversify our gluten free diets.
Cross Contamination
Even if you choose only gluten-free foods for your healthy diet, what if they are made in factories that also make products that contain gluten? Cross-contamination can also occur in your kitchen, when you are preparing meals for yourself and others. If you can use separate cutting boards and cooking utensils, this will help you from inadvertently adding gluten to your otherwise-healthy, gluten-free diet.
Chapter Two – Just How Detrimental Is Gluten to Health?
There are nearly 20,000 medical literature articles about sensitivity to gluten and how this affects your body. Thousands of research teams have looked at these issues and determined that they are indeed problems even for people without celiac disease.
Researchers feel that the problems caused by gluten may extend to juvenile idiopathic arthritis, Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s. They have also touched on a connection between gluten and liver cancer and intestinal permeability.
Not only are researchers linking gluten to health issues, but more family and general practitioners are finding that between three and six people out of every 10 who visit with medical issues have elevated antibodies due to a gluten reaction. This means that the immune systems of these patients are telling physicians that there is, indeed, a problem.
There is no vast amount of money in conducting research on gluten sensitivity. No one is looking for a wonder drug that will profit companies. They are just discovering that the links between gluten and many body symptoms are real.
Gluten and the Immune System
Just because a food does not contain gluten doesn’t mean that it is not junk food. Working with a dietician or nutritionist will be helpful in setting up a healthy diet that is also gluten-free.
Many general practitioners are not trained in the links between gluten and physical issues. When your immune system reacts to gluten, it works in much the same way as a vaccine. The body recognizes that gluten is not good for it, and takes steps to counter the effects.
The active part of the immune system is the memory-B cell. It does not go away. If your body reacts negatively to gluten, this means that your body has memory-B cells related to gluten. Any gluten can cause reactions, even small amounts. The antibodies can work for months after your body reacts to gluten. That is why is essential to cut gluten out fully, even one small bit after a month of being free can set of the body’s reaction system all over again.
The human digestive system cannot digest gluten. The proteins found in wheat, rye and barley are not digestible by the human body. They are not broken down into dipeptides or triteptides like most foods are.
Gluten Affects Disease Development
If your body has gluteomorphins in the bloodstream, they affect the brain receptors that stimulate feel-good hormones. Eating too much gluten in your diet deregulates your receptors, and they no longer work.
This mechanism develops into type 2 diabetes. From your early life, you probably eat a lot of sugar, which
