Are eggs allowed on a gluten-free diet?

Eggs are allowed on a gluten-free diet because they are a natural food that does not contain gluten. Gluten is a protein found primarily in wheat, barley, and rye, and since eggs come from chickens and are not derived from any of these grains, they are inherently safe for consumption by individuals who are avoiding gluten.

The options suggesting restrictions, such as only organic eggs or only boiled eggs, are unnecessary because gluten-free diets do not limit the type of eggs based on their preparation or organic status. Thus, eggs can be enjoyed in various forms—boiled, scrambled, fried, or baked—without concern for gluten content.
