La dieta sin gluten y los alimentos libres de gluten
Author
Abstract
The gluten-free foods global market has significantly grown
during the last decade. Gluten-free diet represents the treatment
for celiac disease, non-celiac gluten sensitivity and wheat
allergy. Another group of persons that follows gluten-free diet
has emerged, perceiving this diet as healthier feeding habit. It is
especially this latter group that has increased to such an extent
that they modified the market of gluten-free foods, improving
availability of these products. However, because their demands
and requirements are different, gluten content control of many of
the currently existing local gluten-free foods is unsatisfactory. We
present the information available on these issues, emphasizing the
few local data available, which refer to school-age snacks and the
“Basic Food Basket”, with and without gluten. Local studies show
that gluten-free snacks for school-age children and the gluten-free
Basic Food Basket are less available, their cost is higher and less
than 8% meet FAO/WHO nutritional recommendations. El mercado global de los productos sin gluten ha tenido
un aumento sin precedente en la última década. La dieta sin
gluten constituye el tratamiento de la enfermedad celíaca, la
sensibilidad no-celíaca al gluten y de la alergia al trigo. Recientemente
ha aparecido otro grupo de personas que elimina
el gluten por considerarlo una opción de alimentación más
saludable. Es especialmente este último grupo que ha logrado
mejorar el mercado de alimentos sin gluten, pero sus requerimientos
son distintos, por lo que parte del aumento del
mercado ha sido en base de productos sin control adecuado
de su contenido de gluten. Analizamos la información existente,
poniendo énfasis en los datos nacionales recientemente
obtenidos acerca de las colaciones escolares y la Canasta
Básica Familiar sin gluten. En ambos casos la disponibilidad
de productos equivalentes sin gluten es menor, el costo tres
o más veces mayor y menos del 8% de ellos cumplen las
recomendaciones nutricionales de la FAO/OMS.
