Wheat and gluten may cause a mild allergic reaction in some people due partly to the particular strains of wheat which have been modified to attain a higher yield.

Wheat and/or gluten sensitivity is implicated in many digestive disorders such as:

• Bloating and distension of the abdomen
• Reflux
• Flatulence
• Stomach pain.
• GIT spasm
• Alternating constipation and diarrhoea
• Irritable Bowel Syndrome

Gluten and wheat sensitivity may also contribute to headaches, fatigue, sinusitis and other respiratory problems.

Wheat free and gluten free diets are indicated for people who have been diagnosed with wheat and/or gluten sensitivity or related medical conditions.

If sensitivty is indicated, Eleanor at City Naturopath will help you design a diet that will reduce your intake of gluten and wheat.
