ist dinkelbrot glutenfrei — what are common causes?

Spelt bread is not gluten-free. Spelt (Triticum spelta) is a wheat species and contains gluten, including the gliadin and glutenin proteins that trigger celiac disease. Its gluten content is comparable to modern wheat, though the protein profile differs slightly. Common causes of confusion: 1) Marketing as an 'ancient grain' or 'easier to digest' falsely implies gluten-free status. 2) Some individuals with non-celiac gluten sensitivity report better tolerance, but this is not due to absence of gluten; it may relate to higher fiber content or fermentation. 3) Confusion with naturally gluten-free grains like buckwheat or millet. For celiac patients, spelt bread is strictly contraindicated; even trace amounts can damage the intestinal lining. Caution is also advised for wheat allergy or NCGS. The term 'gluten-free' is legally prohibited for spelt products. Anyone requiring a gluten-free diet must choose certified gluten-free alternatives. The evidence is well-established in clinical practice, but the specific question about spelt is not addressed in the provided knowledge base.
