    As we know that gluten is a family of protein found in grains like wheat, rice, barley etc. when it is taken by body the digestion of protein start in stomach and finish in small intestine. Here an enzyme belong to hydrolases enzymes called protease, pepsin and trypsin start digestion of protein molecules. these enzymes actually beak down the peptide bonds present amongst amino acids of protein and release them.

    metabolism in liver

    protein molecules along with free amino acids move towards liver in blood stream, here amino groups are removed from amino acids in the form of ammonia which are very toxic and removed from the body in the form of waste products, while the remaining compounds is converted to some other form which is then store or use in body for energy purposes,
