Celiac disease accounts around 4% of all diarrheal deaths in children.

Moreover, various laws implemented by the governments for these products are anticipated to drive the demand for gluten-free products.

Regulation (EU) No 1169/2011 establishes guidelines for the mandatory labelling of allergic or intolerance-causing components, such as gluten-containing compounds, in all foods. To guarantee clarity and uniformity, it was decided that all gluten-related restrictions should be governed by the same piece of legislation. Such government initiatives support the people suffering from celiac disease as well as irritable bowel syndrome for ingredient identification
