Fit Hits: Gluten-free blogs
Posted on Sep 20th 2006 11:25AM by Kristin DarguzasAs fabulous as we at That's Fit think this blog is, the truth is there are hundreds of wonderful blogs on healthy living to be seen all over the blogosphere. So in this feature, Fit Hits, we'll introduce you to some that have caught our eye.
Allergies seem to be everywhere these days. I hear about children not being allowed to bring peanut-butter sandwiches into their schools, see warning signs at bakeries about ingredients potentially touching each other. I'm not sure if my perception is sharpened or if more people around me are allergic to some kinds of food: my one-year old son seems to have a mild dairy allergy.
Allergies to gluten (the stuff formed from flour and water) seem to be among the most common. So today we've searched the world wide web to bring you some of the best websites with recipes and articles about a gluten free lifestyle - which can be very challenging without the right tools.
Karina at Gluten Free Goddess is "a painter who loves to cook", and her website is a hearty meld of sumptuous pictures and savoury recipes. She has a fabulous recipe for a gluten-free cheese sandwich (pretty difficult considering gluten is a key ingredient in bread) She says she "just might write a cookbook. I think she should.
Gluten Free Vegan Diet claims that such a lifestyle is "easier than it sounds." There are some interesting facts here, including the one that 1 in 250 people are living with celiac disease, which is a dangerous intolerance to gluten-containing foods. The site is a plethora of excellent information on avoiding gluten in your diet, including a very helpful list of substitute foods.
Finally glutenfree.com has an array of gluten-free foods that can be ordered conveniently online. The list of available staples (like bread, cookies, and cereals) is extensive and easy to find in the side bar.
Hopefully these resources can help to ease the transition to a gluten free lifestyle. What did we do before the Internet?
