Spelt unsafe for gluten allergy

Some people can tolerate spelt when they can not tolerate wheat.

Others can tolerate limited quantities of spelt but no wheat.

Gluten is a different matter.

If you are $celiac$, avoid spelt completely.

Most people with a $gluten-allergy$ should avoid it as well.

Some people with gluten problems may be able to tolerate some spelt. If your symptoms are discomfort only, you decide for yourself how much – if any – spelt you can tolerate by eating some and going by how you feel.

I hope this answer, as vague as it may seem, is helpful.

I have heard that spelt flour has less gluten than other flours.and is safe to eat if you have a gluten allergy? Is this true? Any personal experiences?
