Packed with nutrients, it\u2019s considered healthy by many. However, wheat can also cause health issues for some people. Gluten, a protein found in wheat, can trigger digestive discomfort, skin problems, and other health concerns in sensitive individuals. Dr Tarang Krishna explains what can happen if you avoid wheat for 21 days.<\/p>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\"><strong>Why Avoid Wheat?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\">According to Dr Tarang, modern wheat is often genetically modified and sold without its natural husk, making it harder for some people to digest. Cutting out wheat and gluten-containing foods can offer several benefits for the body.<\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\"><strong>Health Benefits of a 21-Day Wheat-Free Diet:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\"><strong>1. Aids Weight Loss<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\">Replacing wheat roti with lower-calorie alternatives like bajra, jowar, or ragi rotis can help in weight management. These millet-based options are rich in nutrients yet lighter on calories, making it easier to shed extra pounds.<\/p>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\"><strong>2. Improves Digestion<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"7\" class=\"story_para_7\">For those struggling with digestive issues, wheat can be a culprit. Gluten may cause gas, bloating, and indigestion. Avoiding wheat for 21 days can ease these symptoms, giving your digestive system a much-needed break and improving overall gut health.<\/p>\n<p id=\"8\" class=\"story_para_8\"><strong>3. Controls Blood Sugar<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"9\" class=\"story_para_9\">Wheat is high in carbohydrates, which can spike blood sugar levels. By eliminating wheat from your diet, you may achieve better blood sugar control\u2014especially beneficial for people with diabetes or those at risk of developing it.<\/p>\n<p id=\"10\" class=\"story_para_10\"><strong>Other Benefits<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"11\" class=\"story_para_11\">Many individuals also notice improved energy levels and fewer skin-related issues when they remove gluten from their diet temporarily. It allows the body to reset and reduces the stress on the digestive system.<\/p>\n<p id=\"12\" class=\"story_para_12\"><strong><em>(Disclaimer: This information is for general awareness only.
