Basically wheat contributes carbohydrate, protein, vitamins (especially from the B group), minerals (especially iron) and cereal fibre to the diet. In the average diet wheat can provide up to one sixth of the daily intake of protein, more often than not in the form of bread.

To replace wheat in the diet other foods can be used, e.g. protein is readily available in meat and fish. The B-group vitamins can be supplemented by Brewer’s Yeast or by vitamin tablets. Many previously bought ready-made foods will need to be made at home, such as bread, cakes, biscuits, etc. If wheat bran has previously been used in the diet, other types of fibre will have to be substituted such as rice bran or soya bran.
