12. Gluten
Gluten is a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye, and is commonly found in bread, pasta, and other baked goods. For some individuals, consuming gluten can lead to inflammation in the body and other health problems such as celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.
One of the main issues with gluten is that it can damage the lining of the small intestine, leading to inflammation and other digestive problems. Additionally, consuming gluten can cause an immune response in some individuals, leading to chronic inflammation and other health issues.
To reduce inflammation in the body, it’s best to limit your intake of gluten if you have celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. Opt for gluten-free alternatives such as rice, quinoa, and gluten-free bread and pasta.
When grocery shopping, look for foods that are labeled gluten-free, and avoid foods that contain wheat, barley, or rye.
