Introduction
––––––––
The fact that you have decided to read this book is evidence that the Gluten Free movement is steadily increasing in popularity.
People all over the world have decided that avoiding Gluten was not just another diet option but it was absolutely crucial for the sake of their health. This is not just another fad that will lose momentum before you get time to even research it and it is certainly not another crazy crash diet. This change has been regarded as one of the most practical ways for a lot of people to shed pounds, take charge of their health and start feeling like themselves again. But make no mistake, this diet is not for everyone.
Sticking to a Gluten Free diet will lead you down a path that may be viewed as wrought with adversity. The problem lies is the fact that Gluten is everywhere! Trying to eliminate an ingredient that is included in such a wide array of foods is bound to cause some challenges. The first challenge will be finding the willpower to stop eating quite a bit of the food you have grown to love. This is much easier said than done when the ‘healthier’ substitute is not as tasty. The next challenge will be learning how to get sufficient amounts of the nutrients you need to stay healthy without compromising your decision to avoid Gluten. And if that wasn’t enough, most of the foods labeled “Gluten Free” may be more expensive than their counterparts.
Whatever you decide, always remember that your body is your home. If you do not take the time to take care of it, where will you live? Taking the time to eat right, get sufficient rest and exercise will always be in your best interest. Performing efficiently and at the highest level of your proficiency will only be possible if you take care of yourself. This might require a little bit more time and a tad bit more effort, but it will certainly be worth it. Unfortunately, there is no ‘one size fits all’ when it comes to our health and well- being. You have to put in the work yourself and evaluate your own unique needs. You will never, ever be able to pour from an empty cup. So trust me, take some time to find out what your body needs and you will not regret it.
By now, you should be wondering if all the fuss is really worth it. And once again, I encourage you to think carefully about whether this diet is really right for you. This diet may not be quite what you need. If it is, however, the benefits will far outweigh any challenges you face as a result of this decision. I hate to sound dramatic, but cutting Gluten from your diet may even save your life. In order for you to be sure this diet is right for you, please continue to read on and learn more about Gluten and why avoiding it is such a big deal. This may very well end up being one of the best decisions you have ever made.
Chapter 1 – What is Gluten?
Put simply, Gluten is one of the proteins found in cereal grains such as wheat, rye and barley. Gluten is produced by a combination of two different Proteins. These Proteins are Gliadin and Glutenin. The plant relies on its supply of Gluten because it serves as food for the plant during development. When these grains are ground into flour, the Gluten is responsible for the elasticity of dough mixtures. It is this elasticity that gives our food a certain “chewiness.” Individuals who suffer from Gluten intolerance are often encouraged to avoid oats as well. This is because oats can easily be contaminated by foods that contain Gluten since it is often processed in factories that produce food using wheat and other foods that contain Gluten. Some examples of gluten-free grains are millet, sorghum, brown rice, buckwheat, wild rice, quinoa and corn.
Wheat is often used to make the following foods:
Bread
Pasta
BakeD goods
Sauces
Cakes
Soups
Salad dressings
Battered meat, poultry and fish Rye is used to make foods such as:
Pumpernickel bread
Cereals
Beer
Barley is often used to make:
Beer
Food coloring
Yeast
Malt milk
Malt vinegar
Soups
Many of the foods we eat may also contain some amount of Gluten as a result of being contaminated during the manufacturing process. These foods include:
Dried fruit
Candy
Flavored coffee
Caramel color
Food starch
French fries
Processed cheese and meats
Vegetable and meat stock
Bouillon cubes
Dietary Supplements such as multivitamins
Ice cream
