refers to the family of proteins which is commonly known as prolamins. Modern day
diets contains gluten containing grains which makes a large portion of those diets.
However, gluten proteins are highly resistant to the protease enzymes which break
down protein in the digestive tract of the humans. The gluten free diets lacks
inadequate amount of dietary fibres. It result in constipation and other ailments of
digestive systems which makes restraint. The gluten free diet is not necessarily
healthier. Gluten free foods are made with low fibre dietary. It makes the population
