Gluten is just the protein found in wheat (and barley and rye). There is nothing wrong with eating it unless you have celiac disease. If you want to cut wheat to help reduce carbs, great. but gluten isn’t the reason tortillas or cake is unhealthy.

True but I am gluten esp wheat sensitive. I didn’t know I was until I stopped eating grains for months. I haven’t had gluten in 2.5 years. I had some on my last birthday and was sick all night. I can’t digest it any more.

We can do without it. It is definitely not healthy.
