Ingredients to AVOID While Following a Wheat-Free Diet

Always read labels as some of the following may be safe for a wheat-free diet as long as they are labeled wheat- or gluten-free. For instance, beer often contains wheat since it is a common ingredient used in the brewing process. However, there are beers that are labeled as wheat free or “gluten free.” Breads, cereals, noodles, and other products may also be safe as long as you check the ingredient label for wheat.
