What is gluten?
Gluten is a storage protein found in the endosperm of the grain. It’s a mixture of proteins and found in all grains. “Gluten is composed of two primary subfractions: Prolamines  and Glutelins.  The prolamine gliadin is the most studied piece of gluten in the medical literature as it relates to celiac disease.” (Osborne)  Gliadin is also found in meat.
