Gluten Free Favorites!

In my last article Are You Gluten Free? I promised to share some of my favorite Gluten Free Foods with you all. There are so many things I have not found yet, so if you have a product that is Gluten Free please feel free to post it below.

Many healthy foods are naturally gluten-free:

• Beans, seeds, nuts in their natural, unprocessed form
• Fruits and vegetables
• Most dairy products
• Fresh eggs
• Fresh meats, fish and poultry (not breaded, batter-coated or marinated)

• Udi's Gluten Free Breads
• Pamela's Products
• Edward and Sons Gluten Free Ice Cream Cones, for that special Ice Cream Occasion!
• Applegate Organic & Natural Meats
• goDesana | A Green Organic Int Company
• Organic Gluten Free Lip Products , Keeki Pure and Simple
• For more ideas check out the Gluten Free Mall

Tip: Always check your labels. Hidden allergen ingredients to take into account are found in the following:

• Alcohol
• Germ, Gluten, Vital Gluten
• Barley, Barley Flour
• Graham Flour, Groats
• Barley Malt Extract or Flavorings
• Kamut
• Bran Bulgar, Chilton
• Malt, Matzo, Matzo Meal, Mir
• Cracked Wheat, Couscous
• Orzo, Panko, Pasta, Rye

• Seitan, Semolina, Spelt, Starch
• Dinkle, Duram
• Triticum, Triticale
• Einkorn, Emmer
• Udon, Wheat
• Farina, Faro, Filler, Flour, Fu

Any product containing any of these listed ingredients has been flagged as potentially harmful to anyone with a gluten allergy. There may be others that I have left out, but so far these are the one's that I am aware of.

So take a deep breath in and out. Know that you will be just fine, knowing that there are many choices for you in the Gluten Free world. I hope you found some helpful information here to help you on your journey towards better health. Remember to keep it simple and stress free!
