"Research has found one in 40 foods sold as “gluten-free” actually contained gluten, according to the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research."
"The study published in the Medical Journal of Australia tested 256 of Australia’s most commonly bought gluten-free foods, suggesting that almost 3 per cent failed to meet the national food standard."
"The study found a gluten-free pasta contained more than three milligrams of gluten in a standard single serve."
The "findings raised concerns not only for those with coeliac disease and gluten allergies, but also those with other forms of food allergies."
