Gluten: Gluten is a type of protein found in grains like wheat, barley, rye and triticale (a cross between wheat and rye). If you have celiac disease, you absolutely need to be on a gluten-free diet. Some people who don't have full celiac disease have symptoms of gluten intolerance, like abdominal cramping, diarrhea, bloating, joint pain, "brain fog, " etc. For more info: http://tinyurl.Com/mb93u2f.
