Who Needs to Follow a Gluten-Free Diet?

What is the description of gluten-free? A gluten-free diet excludes any foods that contain gluten, which is a protein found in wheat and several other grains. It means eating only whole foods that don't contain gluten, such as fruits, vegetables, meat and eggs, as well as processed gluten-free foods like gluten-free bread or pasta

With celebrities endorsing gluten-free diets and numerous studies claiming that gluten is a potentially harmful compound, it’s no wonder that more people are going gluten-free every year. A gluten-free diet excludes all gluten-containing foods. Gluten is a protein that is naturally found in a range of grains, including wheat, rye, barley, and spelt. Even some foods that don’t naturally contain gluten may be contaminated with the protein if manufactured in the same warehouse as gluten-containing grains. Gluten is often added to foods to enhance their texture. It acts as a binding agent and adds extra flavor to these foods. Therefore, you might spot gluten on the nutritional labels of a wide range of food products in the grocery store. It’s even found in some beauty and cosmetics products too.

Starting a YouTube channel was one of the best decisions that I ever made. I have always loved food and this blog was started back in 2017 as a way to share my love for delicious food. Before starting the YouTube channel, I always had reasons (excuses really) for not starting. “Oh, I don’t have a camera,” “oh, I don’t know how to edit,” “oh, what if no one likes, subscribes or even comments?” so many reasons that validated my fear of failing at running a channel. But then encouragement from friends and family and my passion for food exceeded that and I started.
