I have started a Gluten Free (well low gluten) for personal reasons and to see if I can feel a difference in my body and energy levels. It’s been about 2 weeks now and so far, nothing yet from an energy standpoint that I am noticing. What I have noticed is the amount of Gluten Free products on the market. This is fantastic for people with Celiac disease that must cut gluten out of their diets or else be in pain. I am impressed with all of the wheat flour substitutes like Rice Flour, Oat Flour, Coconut Flour, Soy Flour, Almond Flour, etc. Bob’s Red Mill http://www.bobsredmill.com/flours-meals/ is one of several manufacturers of these products. I did use their Rice Flour to make some banana nut muffins and I was impressed that they were actually tasty. Other items I have recently purchased include Food Should Taste Good Sweet Potato Tortilla Chips and Crispy Rice Peanut Butter Bars, from EnviroKidz Organic. Even the hummus I purchased states “now gluten free”. We’ll see how the self imposed diet goes and I will certainly keep posting more on the products that impress me.
