Gluten is a protein found naturally in wheat, barley and rye. Most people can tolerate gluten, but some may be at risk for gluten sensitivity or celiac disease. As UNIEN Pharma, we would like to provide information about gluten sensitivity and how gluten-free diets can help.

What is Gluten Sensitivity?

Gluten sensitivity refers to digestive system problems that occur due to gluten consumption in people who do not have celiac disease. Although this sensitivity is not as severe as celiac disease, it can cause discomfort. Symptoms may include stomach pain, bloating, and digestive problems such as diarrhea or constipation.

What is Celiac Disease?

Celiac disease is an autoimmune disease in which the immune system perceives gluten as a threat that will harm the body. In this condition, the body destroys structures called villi in the small intestines, which negatively affects the absorption of nutrients. Symptoms may include stomach pain, weight loss, fatigue, and skin rashes.

The Role of Gluten-Free Diets

Gluten-free diets are of great importance for people who are at risk of gluten sensitivity or celiac disease. These diets involve avoiding foods containing gluten. Here are some important points:

Choose Natural Foods: Natural foods such as vegetables, fruits, meat, fish and nuts do not contain gluten.

Use Gluten-Free Cereals: You can use gluten-free flours, pasta, bread and grain products.

Check Product Labels: When shopping, carefully examine product labels and check if they contain gluten.

Avoid Contamination: Be aware of the risk of gluten contamination when using the same utensils or eating at restaurants.
