What Is Gluten? | Mashable Explains 

I was diagnosed with celiac disease 11 years ago and back then it was nearly impossible to find gluten free food but now thanks to this trend, finding gluten free restaurants and gluten free food is way easier. The only issue with the trend for me is that people assume I do it because I think it's healthier and if I'm eating out they might not take my requests for no cross contaminants seriously.

Did the way he was saying gluten (sounding like glue-den) bother anyone else? My gluten intolerant wife was harassing me the entire video about the way he was saying it... then it started to bother me too...

Please more videos like this with the explanation direct in the first sentence this was a very nice video and superinformative thank you very much!

I have Coeliac disease and I hate it! In the uk the gluten free range is really not that good and it's really hard to try and eat out

What is this "Glu-den" you speak of?

Wow. They just acknowledged gluten intolerance. Mind blown. I'm inherently a skeptic and don't want to believe in it myself because I love eating it. I've tried on multiple occasions to stop avoiding it but I always end up barely functional. I swell up like I've gained weight and end up tired all the time, needing long nights of sleep plus a 2 or 3 hour nap in the middle of the day, every day, just to function. Also my allergies get much worse. Within a few days of clearing it out of my diet, I look like I've lost 20 lbs from the swelling going down, I lose an inch or two from my waistline, and I can easily stay awake and alert all day while sleeping 6 to 8 hours a night. I read an article about how if you're unable to digest the long proteins thoroughly, they tear through the lining of your intestine and get into your blood and can cause inflammation throughout your body. I wish they'd do more research about such things. I'd like to know with more confidence what's going on with this substance that's in so much of our food. Or is it new byproducts that are commonly in gluten-rich foods? I don't know. I wish I did.

Thanks for the explanation on gluden

Thanks for the info

its a "real food" diet that makes you healthy not a gluten free diet.

This trend is ridiculous because of the issues it's causing for people who do have Celiacs disease. There is a general disdain from the ignorant, but there are a number of brands, most notably General Mills, who have come out with "gluten free" cereal. The only problem is that their "gluten free cereals" have rye and barley in them - that means they are NOT gluten free. This dieting trend sees us facing speculation and false advertisement.

Good video.

HAA! WAS SAYING IT RIGHT ALL ALONG!

guys is gluten & bread improver same? reply fast

Thank you

What about corn gluten? I used to feed it to the cows and they loved it. Yum yum.

This just made me hungry.

Dude. This is rad. Well said. Great video.

I have H.Pylori, and I haven’t have gluten. 😢😢

Sooooo, I’m thinking it’s not the gluten, it’s flour that acts as paste and turns to sugar?

i was gonna share it with my students but you had inappropriate words in it, disappointing.

Ngl I feel like gluten free bread just tastes better lmao idk why it just does to me

I figured Seth didn’t know what he was talking about…

GLOODIN

For the most part I found this informative and entertaining BUT it annoyed me that he kept on pronouncing it gluDen.!! But other than that it was very well done just watch the pronunciation. and sorry for being a picky pain in the arse.

For those of you with thyroid issues, consider going gluten free! Many don't make this connection..

You look like you could be Catie Waynes brother.

I have a gluden intolerance.

Gluten ruined my life :(

Talk about the new trend of vegan, : vegan toothpaste, vegan bodywash, vegan beans

You sound like Blu, the bird from Rio (the movie).

what about people who says Gluten is bad for people who has a diagnosis of ADHD

Meh, there is just as much "hype" surrounding the "debunking" of certain trends as there is surrounding the trends themselves. I've picked up different "gluten-free" products that are often made up of an assortment of shitty ingredients, but that isn't to say that going gluten-free, (i.e. NOT eating "gluten-free cookies" But Rather, getting all of your carbohydrates from fruits and vegetables) is a bad idea. It is actually quite good for your health. I mean, what essential vitamins and sources of fibers are people on gluten-free diets missing out on, that they can't obtain through fruits and vegetables? The general consensus in this video, and in the comment section, as to the idea of gluten-free being risky, or laughable, is itself laughable. People love their breads and gluten-based products, and hell, have at it, I love my cigarettes too, but I'm not gonna tell people there might be a risk of not being able to shit right if they don't smoke'em (smokers will know what I'm talking about). The fact is that gluten may not be the demonized protein of death that some people make it out to be, but it sure as hell isn't good for you either, and when going gluten-free intelligently, it can be a benefit to nearly anyone's health.

Background music ruined the video

Didn't really answer the question

Totally wrong information on intolerance. Not only can you get headaches or bloating you can get severe stomach upset swollen intestines that extremely extremely painful diarrhea vomiting. Shakiness . For me digesting gluten the size of a watermelon seed means 3 days minimum of being miserable . And it’s sent me more than once to the ER from bad diarrhea. I’ve been tested numerous times for Crohn’s and celiac‘s I don’t have it just a really severe intolerance. As we get older our body produces less enzymes and it becomes more and more difficult for us to break down the gluten especially in America where they over glutenize our food. Shame on his video for trying to dismiss it . Seven to almost 8% of the population eat gluten free. More than 1% do it because they have to not because they want to.

Cheerios is gluten free -wrong choice to use

Thank you for helping raise awareness of issues surrounding gluten, however, I do have one correction to your video. In the video you state that Celiac Disease is an allergy to gluten. That is incorrect. It is an autoimmune disease, not a simple allergy where epipens or Benadryl can be effective for treatment. The only solution for improvement with Celiac disease is a strict gluten-free diet, with no cross-contamination. Simply trying to avoid gluten is not enough. There is not pill to reduce or cure.

AHHHH good ole GLUEDIN

Nope.

Protein...

Gluten is also very bad for you if you Hashimoto/Hypothyroidism.

0:18 mmmmm......yummmy....:D

You didn't explain what gluten is...

Just eat an egg! (Sure...no fiber...but much more vitamins and minerals...and our bodies are made to absorb it better)

I'd rather blame it on GMO's and wheat is one of those. Wheat is so different than it was 50 years ago. Grains and sugar intake seem to be a big reason why people have gained so much weight. Wheat is the staff of life but too much especially in todays form is the staff of obesity.

Working on my glutes

Speaking too fast in this video.

I have Celiac disease hooray I am the 1% life sucks.

I gotta say gluten free food tastes so boring...

Glue din

Gluten make ur buthile shrink

Give me your gluten and I will eat it.

the millennial health hippies are going to cancel you.

I've had allergies my whole life: sneezing, stuffed-up head and ears, asthma, the occasional rash. Then my body tried to destroy my thyroid (Hashimoto's Disease), and as part of my immunological-boosting regimen, my doctor told me to stop eating gluten. My allergies have all but disappeared. I wish I'd stopped eating gluten when I was a kid. That was some nice mansplaining on the video, though. But totally incorrect.
