Why Go Dairy Free?

Did you know it’s healthy to go dairy-free? Although dairy does have some of its own health benefits, we don’t necessarily need it in our diets. This is because many of the health benefits found in dairy foods are also available in other foods and drinks on the market today in ways that our bodies … Read more

Benefits of Soaking Grains

With our busy modern lifestyle, we often take the fast and easy way out when it comes to cooking. Grains are no exception; think of the last time you cooked rice or pasta or another grain. You probably threw it in a pot and boiled it until it was edible, right? What if I told … Read more

Gluten-Free Beer for the Sippin’ Celiac

I’m not a huge beer drinker—but part of that stems from the fact that I always just assumed I couldn’t drink it. Beer comes from wheat, barley, and other gluten-rich grains, right? Well beer-drinkers rejoice! There is actually plenty of gluten-free beer on the market, but that got me wondering how they make gluten-free beer. … Read more

Is this Gluten-Free Thing Real??, for real.

A few years ago I followed my daughter and her friend around the grocery store (they were in 3rd grade) as they picked out the dinner and snacks they wanted to accompany their slumber party festivities. I heard one say, “so can you eat gluten, because if not, these gluten-free pretzels are great.” The other … Read more

The Increase in Gluten Intolerance

People wonder why there is such a gluten problem now compared to years ago? I came across this really interesting fact in an article in Natural News. According to naturopath, Glen Depke, it appears that the as little as 50 years ago, wheat was only three percent gluten. Now it is 50 % gluten. A hybrid wheat was created … Read more

The Truth about Celiac Disease

A summary of a recent Living Without article May 7, 2012

Any time you have a medically ordered dietary restriction, life changes. Things that most people take for granted, such as grabbing a quick snack while out and about or enjoying the buffet at the office party, become potentially life-threatening adventures. There is so much information, and mis-information, about living with celiac disease. How do you sort through the constant barrage of gluten-free data?

I recently read an excellent article in Living Without where they lay out seven of the top myths associated with Celiac Disease. The article is long but well worth the read and I wanted to provide a quick summary of the questions and the realities and encourage you to read the full article, especially if you are new to the world of gluten-free living.

Did anyone else read the report that came out a couple of weeks ago stating that many people ignore food-allergy warnings despite receiving a food allergy diagnosis? Initially after reading the article, I couldn’t help but wonder why anyone would knowingly risk an allergic reaction. Then I thought about it. If, for example, I had a non-life threatening chocolate allergy and someone told me that I could no longer eat chocolate, could I really eliminate chocolate completely?

Spring is here. We all start to come out of hibernation, smell the budding trees and early flowers. We get out of the house for long walks and watch as the world comes to life again. It’s the perfect time for clearing out the clutter both in our bodies and in our homes and recommitting to those health and wellness goals we made back in January.

If one of your goals was to improve your eating habits, this is the perfect time to plant a garden to support your nutrition goals.

We all know that the tradition of spring-cleaning typically refers the annual cleaning of a house from attic to basement. As the weather warms you will start to see all sorts of references to taking advantage of the early warm days in order to clear out the cobwebs, let the fresh air in and clean … Read more

No place for Aspartame in Gluten-free Baked Goods!

If you don’t like people hopping on a soap box, then this particular post might not be for you. If you can handle a rant, read on because I’ve got a lot to say about why Aspartame has no place in any food product, anywhere!

After all of the research and anecdotal evidence that shows just how nasty this artificial sweetener can be, I can’t believe that we are still having the debate over Aspartame (You also know it as Nutra Sweet or Equal). That this additive has not been banned internationally is beyond reason. (Actually, it’s not all that surprising when you hear a bit about the history of how this product was approved by the FDA in the first place.)
