COMMON ALLERGIES AND DIETS

GLUTEN ALLERGY OR GLUTEN FREE DIET
A gluten-free diet is a diet that
excludes gluten, a protein composite found
in wheat and related grains,
including barley and rye. Gluten causes
health problems in sufferers of celiac
disease (CD) and some cases of wheat
allergy.

LACTOSE INTOLERANCE
is the inability of adults to digest lactose, a
sugar found in milk and to a lesser
extent dairy products, causing side effects.
It is due to a lactase deficiency,
or hypolactasia. Congenital lactase
deficiency prevents babies from drinking
even human milk.

FAT FREE DIET

Is one that restricts fat and often saturated
fat and cholesterol as well. Low-fat diets
are intended to reduce diseases such
as heart disease and obesity. Reducing fat
in the diet can make it easier to cut
calories.

SUGAR FREE
The most extreme form of a sugar-free diet
restricts all foods that contain added sugars
as well as fruit and any vegetables that
contain natural sugars such as peas, carrots
and parsnips. The less extreme form of the
diet permits fruit (but not juices) and
vegetables and restricts all added sugars,
honey and processed foods that contain
sugars such as sugar-sweetened drinks,
confectionery, sweet snacks, biscuits,
cakes, pastries, ice cream and desserts,
sweetened yoghurt, most breakfast cereals,
sauces, soups and marinades.

Dietary vegans (or strict vegetarians)
refrain from consuming animal products,
not only meat but, in contrast to ovolacto
vegetarians, also eggs, dairy products and
other animal-derived substances. The
term ethical vegan is often applied to those

11

who not only follow a vegan diet, but

extend the vegan philosophy into other
areas of their lives, and oppose the use of
animals and animal products for any
purpose. Another term used
is environmental veganism, which refers to
the avoidance of animal products on the
premise that the harvesting or industrial
farming of animals is environmentally
damaging and unsustainable.
