Nuwi - Quinoa Smoothie For Everyone Gluten-Free Product Review

There has been a sharp rise of gluten free ingredient, quinoa, into the alternative lifestyle over the past 10 + years. I like this movement. What hasn't been done yet with quinoa until recently though, according to my research, is a delicious gluten free morning rich  smoothie/snack drink to start your your day.

Taste Your Bread With Rudis Gluten-Free Product Review

Rudis gluten-free bread review by @GlutenFreeG

For awhile gluten-free breads were cheap, fluffy, holed, and not tasty. Then came Rudi's who has done it better.  The good news is that Rudis gluten-free breads come in three improved tasty recipes and constantly innovating in a very competitive gluten-free bread category. There is so much innovation happening I'm hooked so far on this cinnamon raisin and excited for a nutrient dense multi-grain bread that can toast well. 

Contamination Reality

What's the latest in the world of gluten-free contamination?

Being gluten-free can be a bit lonely and at times you may feel socially separated. We've all felt that way and that's okay because we are different. It's important to understand and feel confident that you're not like everyone else because you can't eat gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley, rye, malts and more.

I was recently reading this article from Celiac.com about gluten-free students who are stepping up to the reality that they can't eat from their own university dining hall. They can't eat at restaurants either because of the high level of contamination. We've seen many restaurants around the globe create gluten-free menus, offer to come up with a unique dish for you, but is it safe enough?

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT

Dear Gluten-Free consumers and/or those who have ever heard of the Gluten-Free lifestyle movement,

The gluten-free movement has grown albeit entering near mainstream, is at a pivotal moment for improvement or destruction to our health. I need not scare you, but I challenge you to educate yourself more fully about gluten-free food ingredients and manufacturer preparation.

Gluten is the common name for the proteins in specific grains that are harmful to persons with Celiac Disease. These proteins are found in ALL forms of wheat (including durum, semolina, spelt, kamut, einkorn and faro) and related grains rye, barley and triticale and MUST be eliminated. Celiac Disease (CD) is a lifelong inherited autoimmune condition affecting children and adults. When people with CD eat foods that contain gluten, it creates an immune-mediated toxic reaction that causes damage to the small intestine and does not allow food to be properly absorbed. Even small amounts of gluten in foods can affect those with CD and cause health problems.
