                                Over 100,000 participants in a 2017 study found no association between long-term dietary gluten consumption and heart disease for non-celiac individuals. The premise of 'why can't vegans eat gluten' is fundamentally flawed, as gluten is a plant-based protein perfectly acceptable on a vegan diet, unless a separate health condition necessitates its avoidance.
