If you have coeliac disease, your immune system reacts to gluten and leads to damage to the lining of your gut. This causes symptoms of coeliac disease, including bloating, diarrhoea, nausea, tiredness and headaches. This only happens if gluten is eaten. By avoiding all gluten (some people also need to avoid oats), your gut can heal and your symptoms should improve. The gluten-free diet is the only treatment for coeliac disease. For some, it’s a choice. For others, a necessity. But regardless of the reasons, gluten-free has become a huge food trend in the last few years.

Grocery stores and bakeries are rife with baked goods, but often light on gluten-free varieties. Dear readers, take heart! Going gluten-free does not mean going dessert-free for the rest of your life. In fact, there are loads of gluten-free desserts options out there. Click the link below and find out more!
