Tips for Eating Gluten Free

 

Many companies now create tasty gluten-free products.
 
Look for specialty flours, pizza doughs, cereals, snack bars, baking mixes, breads, tortilla wraps, cookies, and crackers in your favorite natural foods store.
 
The certified gluten-free mark is a voluntary certification program that indicates products are made in a dedicated facility, batch-tested for purity, and meet the strictest standards for gluten free (beyond the requirements of government regulations).
