Going gluten free is a way of life for many people that comes with its own set of challenges and rewards. For those with gluten sensitivities this diet can be a way to promote well-being and better overall health. Gluten free diets essentially exclude all foods that contain gluten, which is a protein found in wheat, barley and other grains. Many staple foods like bread, pasta, and pizza are excluded, but there are plenty of other delicious options. You can choose from plenty of grains and seeds like quinoa, rice, corn, buckwheat, millet, and tapioca, and you can have an abundance of fruits and vegetables. There are also ample gluten free replacements for things like frozen dinners, pastries, and various snack foods. Not only are there plenty of food choices, but people on a gluten free diet often experience a decreased risk in chronic diseases, higher energy levels, and better digestion. All in all, living a gluten free life is achievable and beneficial.
