They say that man should not live on bread alone, well these pages will show that because the bread we now eat has been changed and modified so much it is doing us harm and should be avoided. Once these pages are fully functional It should give some tips on looking for wheat in the diet and how to spot it. Plus some alternatives, but remember people will change their ingredients and foods that were safe to eat may now be forbidden.
When you buy your Wheat Free, Gluten Free (WFGF) products you need to take care that they are WFGF. For example Buckwheat is naturally gluten free, but Dove Farm's Buckwheat flour is not suitable for people sensitive to gluten. This is generally because either the transportation of the grain, or the milling process is shared with wheat or processed in a factory that also processes wheat flour or other gluten flours. You need to look at the ingredient lists or preferrably there will be a gluten free logo on the packet.
In the UK gluten free is defined as less than 20 parts per million. Whereas in Australia it is defined as less than 3 parts per million. It is mainly linked to the sensitivity of the testing machines.
When you buy food you need to get into the habit of checking the ingredient list, you also need to be aware of ingredients that may contain wheat. Watch out for starch as an ingredient as that is likely to be wheat, if it says maize starch then that is mainly safe as maize is from corn and that is gluten and wheat free. However, again it depends on how that maize has been processed. Similarly dextrins and maltodextrins may be derived from wheat or barley so be aware.
