1Values refer to 24 h prior to first contact (at baseline).

2Values are the average of the 3 days prior to the date of post intervention.

3Amount of food containing gluten in its composition (bread, biscuits, cake, pasta, savory, breakfast cereals, cereal bars) SFA = Saturated Fatty Acid; MUFA = Monounsaturated fatty acid; PUFA = Polyunsaturated fatty acid; n-3 = Omega 3 Fatty Acid; n-6 = Omega 6 Fatty Acid; TEI = Total Energy Intake.
