Gluten-free is not the same as low-carb. Gluten-free products are free of gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye, for those who have a gluten sensitivity or intolerance or who suffer from Celiac disease. There are many gluten-free products that contain the same amount or more carbs than traditional items so it’s important to always read the nutrition label when choosing gluten-free products [6].
