Gluten Wheat Free

Gluten is the main protein of the cereal grains wheat, rye, tritcale, barley and oats.  These grains appear in many foods such as bread, pasta, biscuits and cakes. Gluten is also found in the 'not so obvious' foods i.e. sausages, processed meats, soups, sauces, dressings and thickeners.

Coeliac Disease is a lifelong dietary intolerance to gluten resulting in damage to the lining of the small intestine, such that food is not absorbed properly. Symptoms include anaemia, tiredness, depression, chronic diarrhoea, bloating and osteoporosis. 

The solution - eliminating gluten from the diet.

In the last few years the rate of diagnosis has increased significantly, possibly due to growing awareness and easier diagnosis.

LEDA Nutritions facility is completely gluten free to ensure there is no chance of cross contamination. So you can feel rest assured that ALL LEDA products are gluten free!

You don’t have to be a coeliac to enjoy the benefits of gluten free products.  Wheat is often more difficult to digest, and the intake of other grains ensures your diet is more nutritionally balanced.

Chick Pea Flour (Besan flour) is a gluten free pulse / legume containing excellent sources of protein, starch and dietary fibre.  It contains a high level of minerals – potassium, calcium, magnesium, carotenes and folic acid.  Chick peas also have a Low GI.
