Answer
Dear Rishabh, I am assuming your doctor has tested you for a wheat allergy and it came up positive. Your doctor who diagnosed you at that time should also supply you with the information on how to avoid wheat in foods and what supplements you should be taking. A simple search for wheat allergy on google landed many links to diet plans etc. One such was: www.mayoclinic.com/health/wheat-allergy/DS01002
