Gluten Free Bread
Gluten free bread would basically mean bread that does not contain ingredients derived from gluten. The cereals that contain this are wheat, rye, triticale, barley, and oats. Gluten is basically an amorphous protein found in these cereals. Gluten free bread is generally consumed by people who are suffering from coeliac disease and dermatitis herpetiformis.
Some doctors also say that it is even helpful for patients suffering from multiple sclerosis, other autoimmune disorders, autism spectrum disorders, ADHD and some behavioural problems.
