Love, Silvana Nardone Author of Cooking for Isaiah: Gluten-Free & Dairy-Free Recipes for Easy, Delicious Meals What Is Gluten? Gluten is a protein naturally found in certain grains such as wheat, barley, rye and some oats. Consequently any foods that are made with these grains also contain glutenthat includes foods such as bagels, breads, cakes, cereals, cookies, crackers, pasta, pizza and more. Who Should Avoid Gluten? About three million Americans suffer from an inherited autoimmune disorder called celiac disease (or celiac sprue). The disease affects the digestive process of the small intestine and is triggered by the consumption of gluten. If you are affected by celiac disease, eating gluten or gluten-containing foods triggers an autoimmune reaction that leads to inflammation and damage to the lining of the small intestine called the mucosa (where foods go after they have been eaten and digested).

This damage makes it very difficult for your body to absorb nutrients from the foods you eat. Over time, a damaged small intestine can lead to malnourishment and other possible complications such as loss of bone density, iron deficiency anemia, villous atrophy (flattening of the finger-like villi that stick out from the mucosa and help with absorption), gastrointestinal and neurological symptoms and quality of life issues. If you have celiac disease, the only treatment is to follow a gluten-free dietthat is, to avoid all foods containing gluten. For most people, following this diet will heal existing intestinal damage and prevent further damage. How to Know If Its Celiac Disease? Celiac disease affects people differently. There are hundreds of signs and symptoms of celiac disease, yet many people with celiac disease have no symptoms at all.
