Super Delicious & Gluten-Free Meal Guide, Recipe Post #445: Thai Curry Noodle Bowl

Being gluten-free simply means avoiding foods that contain gluten, which is found in grains such as wheat, barley, and rye. Gluten-free foods include many healthful plant-based foods, such as fruits, vegetables, nuts, beans, and legumes, as well as gluten-free grains. Some processed, packaged foods are labeled as gluten-free, but it is important to read ingredient labels carefully to make sure that a food is truly gluten-free. Eating a gluten-free diet may provide some health benefits, such as improved digestion and increased energy, as well as reducing inflammation. Additionally, people with celiac disease or non-celiac gluten sensitivity should adhere to a gluten-free diet to reduce health risks associated with their conditions.
