Gluten is a protein found in grains including wheat, rye, oats and barley. Some people cannot tolerate gluten when it comes in contact with the small intestine, resulting in bloating, gas, abdominal cramps, vitamin and mineral deficiencies. This condition is known as celiac disease. Removing gluten from the diet can be complicated as grains are used in the preparation of many foods. It is often hard to tell by an ingredient's name what may be in it, so it is easy to eat gluten without even knowing it.
