One person whom I know who avoids gluten like the plague also uses seitan in cooking as a replacement for meat. Oddly eating a slice of bread gives them all kinds of weird bloating, feeling that their bowels are impacted, whatever the symptom of the day is while eating a meal with seitan makes them feel well fed.
What is seitan? It's basically wheat gluten.
If anyone want to try making it at home, I've used the recipe from this site a couple of times:
An Easy Homemade Seitan Recipe (A step-by-step guide) though I have used a different brand of gluten flour (just avoid Whole Foods since they are ridiculously overpriced).
