Increasing prevalence of celiac disease driving the gluten free foods Industry
The demand for gluten free foods is mainly attributed to the increasing prevalence of celiac disease across the globe.When people suffering from celiac disease eat any food that contains gluten, the body mistakenly identifies it as harmful and triggers an auto immune reaction, resulting in swelling and inflammation of small intestine. Repeated consumption of gluten by people with celiac disease can cause permanent damage the small intestine. Although a gluten free diet does not cure celiac disease, however the diet does relieve the symptoms associated with gluten sensitivity.
