A Gluten Free Life Online

Question by Krystal T: What Gluten free foods can i eat?
I am a vegan, and i think i have a gluten allergy or Celiac disease. I want to test this out by cutting out foods that contain gluten. What can i eat? I already cut so much out of my diet that it would be even harder to just cut out all grains like pasta, oatmeal, and bread.
I want to eat foods that naturally do not contain gluten, not products where you can go to the store and but gluten free varieties. Otherwise i would not be asking this question.

all fresh foods that are not wheat, barley, rye, spelt, etc. are naturally gluten free. For carbs I eat potatoes (especially sweet and yams), quiona, buckwheat, some soy (but be careful d/t cross contamination), some corn (also cc issue).
The best place to get this information is at Celiac.com. Look at the unsafe ingredient list and go from there.
Also, no items from a “bar” or the bulk bins (cross contamination). For fresh food ideas simply search “gluten free recipies” and tons should show up.
If you really want to know, you can always have the celiac blood testing done.
Good luck and health to you!

to the person below, use tinkyada pasta. It is BETTER than wheat based pasta and whole grain ! Stay away from that sticky corn stuff! Also Shar pasta is great!
and unless your corn tortillas are specifically gluten free or you make them yourself with cert. gf corn meal (e.g. Bob’s Red Mill) you are probably glutening yourself due to cross contamination. No offence, but you might want to step your game up a bit and look into emerging information about cross contamination issues.
Also, be careful of those chinese rice crackers. Keep the wheat allergy rss feed going on your computer, if you did that you would understand the number of times “undeclared” wheat alert goes out on those products. They do NOT have the same standards as the US for food (remember MESALAMINE??) in China and you want to be VERY careful about eating that sort of thing!!
Stick with Lundeberg rice cakes and other certified gluten free products for your health and safety and fresh foods only if money is an issue.
and PLEASE tell me you are not eating generic trail mix!
Sorry to break the news to you, but you are going to need to be a bit more careful than what you are! If you can, please join a celiac support group, you sound like you can use the support!

Question by redrubies: Can i eat gluten free food even if im not gluten sensitive?
What are the benefits? Will it help me lose weight? What is gluten free food?

Best answer:

Answer by Daniel ben Yeshia
Gluten is an elastic type of protein found in wheat. It is what gives bread dough its stretchy nature.

Yes, you can eat gluten free even if you aren’t gluten sensitive. Many people avoid white flour to lose weight. White flour has no fiber to it, so you are better off eating more raw vegetables instead of grains (corn is a grain, not a vegetable). If you do this it is likely that you will lose weight.

Gluten Free Food While Traveling

Article by Mark Etinger

Traveling, either for work or for pleasure, can be quite an ordeal in and of itself. Add to that the stress of sticking to gluten free foods and you might feel this is a recipe for disaster. With a little bit of research and some planning ahead, your trip can be an enjoyable one.

Airline travel might seem like the toughest route to tackle. You cannot eat regular airline meals provided on the flight, so you must find out in advance if the airline can prepare a gluten free meal. With an increase in awareness, most airlines should be able to accommodate you. However, some may restrict these special meals to longer or cross-continental flights. Call in advance to inquire and reserve your meal. You cannot ask for a special meal at the last minute. After boarding, let the crew know that you ordered the gluten free food so they don’t mistakenly give it to someone else.

Unfortunately, you can’t assume all the food they give you is gluten free. They might think they’re being “generous” by giving you the normal dessert, but you probably can’t eat it. Only eat the food that is wrapped and labeled. To be safe, bring along “emergency” snacks and food for the flight. It’s also a wise decision to pack gluten free snacks in case you have trouble searching for safe foods during your stay.

When booking your hotel, always request a room with a microwave and refrigerator. The more meals you can make yourself, the better. Stopping at the local grocery stores might prove to be a hassle because you either won’t have the time or they might not have what you’re looking for. Instead, order gluten free food online before your trip and have it delivered to your hotel room. Then food will be one less item to worry about and you can focus on enjoying your trip.

Shy away from vending machines and fast food places. Unless properly labeled, gluten free foods maybe hard to identify. Books like, “The Essential Gluten Free Grocery Guide,” lists thousands of safe foods to eat. Look for similar books to guide you along the way. When eating at restaurants, be inquisitive and talk to your server about the foods they can offer you

Your trip should be one you remember because of the good times you had and not because of constant stomach issues. Always be smart and don’t take risks with your food.
