Are people allergic to wheat allergic to wheat grass as well?


Question:
I understand some people are allergic to wheat due to skin allergies, rashes, eczema.

What about wheat grass or barely green health drink. Would it cause the same skin reaction?

Wheat grass is made from wheat too right?

Answers:
Wheatgrass is different from wheat. One is a green vegetable, the other a grain. The green vegetable grass contains no gluten.

Therefore you are not automatically allergic to both.
I was actually very amazed to discover wheat grass does not contain gluten! Now as to whether that is safe for a wheat ALLERGY I don't know, I have Celiac so I need to avoid the gluten. Wheat grass contains none. Weird, huh?
