Benefits of Gluten-Free Food Ingredients to Our Body
What is
Gluten?
Some cereals and pulses are part of
our day to day cooking and food such as wheat, barley, rye etc. Gluten is a
protein that is generally found in these cereals. This fibre-rich constituent
serves as a binder and holds food together, rendering it a stretchy quality.
Without gluten, the wheat atta and the Maida atta will rip off easily.
Gluten is predominantly associated
with wheat and wheat rich foods, but recent studies denote that food rich in
gluten can be harmful to people suffering from celiac disease. Celiac disease
is a serious auto-immune disorder that affects the small intestine of
individuals. When the villi in the small intestine are affected, it can result
in malabsorption of nutrients.
Gluten-free
diet:
The only alternative to cope up with
celiac disease is to avoid Gluten completely in the diet. Apart from decreasing
the ill effects on the small intestine, it also helps people with weight loss.
But this gluten-free food is not available in the market easily, even in metro
cities.
Manufacturers of 100% gluten-free biscuits in India that are also FSSAI approved are very meagre in the
market. GlutenF the specialized gluten-free store has brought in a number of
gluten-free foodstuffs that are also approved by FSSAI. The company offers
gluten-free food at different price ranges. The different products that are
available in the gluten-free food range are,
- Gluten-free Khatai biscuits
- Gluten-free Choco cookies
- Gluten-free Strawberry cream
biscuits

Gluten-free
Atta:
Apart from rendering gluten-free
biscuits in different flavours, GlutenF also offers Gluten-free atta. The gluten free atta online is available
for public consumption. The composition of the atta is rice, corn, guar gum,
and sorghum. Rotis made from this atta serves as an excellent food source for
people who suffer celiac disease. Traditionally foods that are free of gluten
lacked the desired nutritive index, but the gluten-free diet from GlutenF is a
balanced source of essential nutrients except for gluten.
