Collection: Gluten Free A

Gluten is a protein found mainly in grains such as Wheat, Rye, Barley and Oats. It contains no essential nutrients, and hence can be easily removed from the grain before consumption. For many, the consumption of gluten results in negative reactions in their body including inflammation, intestinal bloating, discomfort, and skin damage. If you experience these side-effects, you might want to consider shifting to a gluten-free diet. Some people even experience a severe reaction which is now termed as celiac disease. It is an autoimmune disorder in which the body accidentally harms itself (possibly the intestines.) However, only 1% of the population suffer from celiac disease - most of the others experience slight difficulty from gluten consumption.

To make it easier for you to follow a gluten-free diet, the nutritionists at Conscious Food have curated a fine list of gluten-free foods and ingredients that you can use in your daily diet. The Indian diet especially contains several grains and gluten-free options that are very healthy for you and equally delicious.

One doesn’t have to compromise on flavourful, rich, and nutritious food while following a gluten-free diet. We’ve composed a list of dairy products, nuts and seeds, cold-pressed oils, grains such as quinoa, rice, buckwheat, millets, amaranth, and oats - that will make following a gluten-free diet a breeze. It is also important to remember to include whole, single-ingredient foods like fruits and vegetables, and proteins like lentils to receive all the vitamins and nutrients your body requires for healthy functioning.

A gluten-free diet enhances energy, helps you lose weight, makes digestion easy, and reduces chronic inflammation.
