Gluten Free

 

 

Due to repeated requests from our clients, House of Biskota decided to introduce a range of healthier gluten free biscuits and slices. This is a key difference between House of Biskota and other specialty bakers. We spent considerable time perfecting our recipes in order to produce a healthy and delicious range that taste just as good, if not better, than our normal biscuits.

What is Gluten Intolerance?

 

People who are intolerant of Gluten suffer from a condition called Coeliac disease. Coeliac disease affects approximately 1 in 100 people in Australia and is becoming a major issue not only in adults but also in many new borns. Coeliac disease is triggered by the ingestion of Gluten, a protein found in wheat, rye, barley and oats.

 

 Coeliac disease is one of the most under-diagnosed, yet most common chronic diseases. Left untreated, the possibility of severe consequences such as bowel removal or cancer and osteoporosis increases. The condition affects the absorption of food and nutrients and can lead to symptoms including weight loss, diarrhoea, iron and folic acid deficiency.

 

A gluten free diet is the only long term treatment for Coeliac disease. Complete removal of gluten from the diet allows the gut to recover to normal over a period of time. Even small amounts of gluten are enough to prevent recovery or cause further damage.

 

Our Gluten free range not only benefits Coeliac’s but everybody else!
Many people are now turning to Gluten Free products because it’s a much healthier alternative, having 50% less fat than normal biscuits.

 

 Information about Coeliac Disease:
 

Coeliac disease is an auto-immune disease. Auto-immune means the body mistakenly produces antibodies that damage its own tissues. It is a permanent intestinal intolerance to dietary gluten. A number of seriouse health consequences can result if the condition is not diagnosed and treated properly.
As quoted by The Coeliac Society.
