Does wheat flour have gluten?

Answer:
Yes. Wheat flour has gluten in it. Many people who can't tolerate gluten, can not eat products containing wheat. That includes white flour.

Technically, most flours have gluten in them, but flours containing wheat, barley, rye, kamut, spelt, or triticale have a special kind of gluten that causes the negative reaction in people with gluten intolerance or celiac disease. For example, corn has its own form of gluten that does not contain the same chemicals that cause the reaction in celiac patients.
