Khorasan wheat has high protein content which improves its vitreousness which indicates a high milling yield. As kamut contains gluten, it is unsuitable for people with gluten-related disorders, such as celiac disease, non-celiac gluten sensitivity and wheat allergy sufferers, among others. As Khorasan wheat is an ancient cereal species, the climatic requirements still correspond very well with its region of origin—i.e., the fertile crescent in the Middle East.

Gliadin Gliadin Gliadin (a type of prolamin) is a class of proteins present in wheat and several other cereals within the grass genus "Triticum". Gliadins, which are a component of gluten, are essential for giving bread the ability to rise properly during baking. Gliadins and glutenins are the two main components of the gluten fraction of the wheat seed. This gluten is found in products such as wheat flour. Gluten is split about evenly between the gliadins and glutenins, although there are variations found in different sources. Gliadin is the water-soluble component of gluten, while glutenin is insoluble. There are three
