What is spelt intolerance and how does it differ from spelt allergies?

Spelt intolerance differs from spelt allergies in that it does not trigger an immune system response. Spelt allergies involve the immune system recognizing specific spelt proteins as harmful, leading to allergic reactions, such as hives, swelling, or respiratory issues.

What are the common symptoms of spelt intolerance?
  • Nausea
  • Bloating
  • Abdominal pain
  • Diarrhea
  • Gas
When should I consider getting a spelt intolerance test?

If you consistently experience digestive discomfort or symptoms after consuming spelt and suspect intolerance, consider discussing your symptoms with a healthcare provider. They can help determine whether testing for spelt intolerance or other gastrointestinal conditions is necessary.

How can I manage and cope with spelt intolerance in my daily life?

Managing spelt intolerance involves avoiding spelt-based products and opting for alternatives. Be cautious when reading food labels and restaurant menus to avoid spelt-containing dishes. Consult with a healthcare provider or dietitian to ensure you maintain a balanced diet while avoiding spelt.
