{"id":360,"count":8,"description":"Gluten-free is a specific diet that <b>completely excludes gluten<\/b>, a protein naturally found in <strong>wheat, barley, and rye<\/strong>. It also encompasses all products made from these grains or containing their derivatives.\r\n\r\nThis diet is <b>medically necessary<\/b> for individuals suffering from <b>celiac disease<\/b>, an autoimmune condition where gluten damages the small intestine. In addition to celiac disease, a gluten-free diet can also be beneficial for individuals with <b>non-celiac gluten sensitivity<\/b> or a <b>wheat allergy<\/b>, where gluten consumption can trigger a range of unpleasant symptoms like digestive issues, fatigue, and headaches.\r\n\r\nWhen following a gluten-free diet, the emphasis is placed on naturally gluten-free foods such as:\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li><b>Fruits and vegetables<\/b><\/li>\r\n \t<li><b>Meat and fish<\/b> (pure, unprocessed)<\/li>\r\n \t<li><b>Eggs and dairy products<\/b><\/li>\r\n \t<li><b>Legumes<\/b> (beans, lentils, peas)<\/li>\r\n \t<li><b>Potatoes, rice, corn<\/b><\/li>\r\n \t<li><b>Naturally gluten-free grains<\/b> like quinoa, buckwheat, millet, and oats (certified gluten-free).<\/li>\r\n \t<li><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\nThe challenge in a gluten-free diet lies in<strong> identifying hidden gluten in processed foods, additives, and certain beverages<\/strong>. Therefore, careful label reading is crucial for maintaining a strict gluten-free diet and ensuring good health.","link":"https:\/\/resabi.com\/kitchen\/diet\/gluten-free\/","name":"Gluten Free","slug":"gluten-free","taxonomy":"diet","meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/resabi.com\/kitchen\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/diet\/360","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/resabi.com\/kitchen\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/diet"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/resabi.com\/kitchen\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/taxonomies\/diet"}],"wp:post_type":[{"href":"https:\/\/resabi.com\/kitchen\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts?diet=360"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
