Where to Find Gluten-Free Food in Cairo

The words “gluten-free diet” is usually mistaken for people who are either dieting or seeking a healthier lifestyle. But gluten intolerance is a condition where people are sensitive and react to a wheat protein called gluten. The symptoms can be as simple as fatigue and as extreme as joint pain and gastrointestinal problems.

Whenever Egyptians are diagnosed with gluten intolerance, finding gluten-free food is a major struggle just as much as the disease itself. It is usually easier to find gluten-free products like pasta and rice, while other gluten-free items like bread can be a bit challenging if you are not willing to bake it yourself.

To make a gluten-free existence easier for Cairenes, we decided to share some of the locations that were highly recommended by the gluten-sensitive community.
