So what does “Gluten Free” mean? NEW! Gluten is a type of protein that is found in wheat, barley and rye. In people with celiac disease, eating certain types of grain-based products sets off a response in their small intestine. Celiac disease can affect both children and adults and as of this time, there’s no cure — but following a strict gluten free diet can help manage symptoms. People with Celiac disease have to stay away from most types of bread, cereal, cookies and crackers.
