Wheat Intolerance Ayurvedic Perspectives
Wheat Intolerance (Gluten Allergy)
Write a review!
Written by John Joseph Immel, Asheville, NC
A wheat intolerance is an inability to digest wheat. A gluten allergy is slightly different. Gluten is a protein molecule found in wheat and some other grass family foods (such as barley). A gluten allergy means that your immune system attacks the gluten in the small intestine after you ingest it. People with a wheat intolerance can often eat a tablespoon or two of wheat without symptoms. People with wheat allergies will experience symptoms even after small doses of wheat.

Disclaimer: Conditions such as 'Wheat Intolerance' that cause tissue changes could be serious and should be checked by a medical doctor.

Aggravated Doshas & Qualities

Symptoms Tell A Story

The first step to healing is learning patterns from your symptoms. Symptoms are clues that reveal underlying imbalances, showing you where your body is weak. Specifically, they reveal the doshas & qualities that may have become aggravated. If you notice a quality or dosha appears next to many of your symptoms, it helps you establish a pattern that may be systemic.

Wheat Intolerance indicates one or more of the following doshas and qualities are imbalanced:

Vata aggravatingKapha aggravatingGooeyDifficult

Key: V = Vata, P = Pitta, K = Kapha. A slash through a dosha means it an aggravated dosha. To learn more about the symbols above, click on them.

Stage of Disease: 3 - Attacking Tissue

If you have symptoms in this category it means that your imbalances have weakened organs and tissue. At any moment, these imbalances could overwhelm weakened tissue and develop into degenerative disease.
