Beers Under 20 ppm Gluten: A Comprehensive Guide
Beers under 20 parts per million (ppm) gluten are considered safe for people with gluten sensitivity or celiac disease. This guide aims to provide a comprehensive overview of gluten-free beer options available on the market, including naturally gluten-free beers and those made with genetically modified grains.
What is Gluten?
Gluten is a protein found in plants, particularly wheat, rye, and barley. It is responsible for the texture and chewiness in foods like bread, pasta, and baked goods. For people with gluten sensitivity or celiac disease, gluten can cause serious health issues, including intestinal inflammation and nutritional deficiencies.
Naturally Gluten-Free Beers
Naturally gluten-free beers are made from grains that do not contain gluten. Some examples include rice, sorghum, buckwheat, and oat straw. These grains can be used to brew beer without the risk of contamination from gluten-containing grains.
