For people with Celiac Disease, currently the only treatment is a life without gluten. But often when you take away something, especially something as drastic as everything that includes gluten, it can cause problems for your body. Does a life without gluten cause nutritional problems?
Celiac.com recently tackled this topic with their recent post about the nutritional content of alternative grains and flours, where it was determined that you can get that needed nutrition while maintaining a strict gluten free diet:
We can remedy this by eating alternative grains in whole, unprocessed states, and by including nuts, seeds, and other sources of fiber such as dried coconut and legumes in our diets. Wheat is an excellent source of Vitamin E, so those on gluten-free diets might want to supplement with a good brand of Vitamin E.
