Gluten-free South Asian foods include rice dishes, lentil-based curries, and besan-flour snacks. Many traditional preparations are inherently gluten-free. Nutritional profile varies widely by dish.
For celiacs, strict gluten avoidance (under 20 ppm) is essential — even small exposures cause intestinal damage regardless of symptoms. Naturally gluten-free whole foods (rice, lentils, vegetables) are far preferable to processed gluten-free substitutes, which are often nutritionally inferior and higher in sugar/fat.
Naturally gluten-free diets based on whole rice, lentils, and vegetables support healthy weight. Avoid the common trap of replacing wheat-based foods with heavily processed gluten-free products — they are often higher in calories, sugar, and fat with less fiber.
