AYURVEDA PERSPECTIVE ON WHEAT INTOLERANCE

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.
