What is Gluten Free?
Simply put, gluten free means no wheat, rye, barley, and most oats. Gluten is a protein, and the gluten-free diet refers a diet without the specific gluten proteins that are found in wheat, rye, and barley.
Most oats, unless they are specially grown, are contaminated with gluten. Some people on a gluten-free diet cannot tolerate even the specially grown gluten-free oats.
If you are looking for information about the gluten-free diet or how to get started with eating gluten free, the following information should be helpful to you. These are links to previous posts and are divided by category. You might also find my Celiac Disease Information page useful.
The Gluten Free Survival Guide, by Mary Frances and John Pickett is a very practical and thorough eBook which I recommend to beginners. The link to the survival guide is an affiliate link which will take you to another site.
