Have you tried several diets in order to lose your weight?

And desired results have not been achieved yet.

Then a gluten-free diet can be another option for you to give it a try.

Gluten is a general term for the proteins found in wheat and it acts as a glue which helps foods maintain their shape.

Nowadays, there is a growing number of people who cannot tolerate gluten and have to eat only foods which do not contain it.

Anyway, there is a wide range of gluten free products, but they cost more than twice the price of foods containing wheat. So it may be too expensive for people with low income.

WORDS
gluten: a mixture of two proteins in wheat.
glue: a substance used for joining things together.
