Gluten Free Diet – Six Ground Rules



The way in which many celiacs cope with having to learn to live gluten free is:

plan ahead with your meals. Shopping my become a little longer affair to begin with, but it does get easier with more knowledge, and prepare meals in advance. This takes pressure off of you, especially if your mornings are a little hectic (as in my own home!) Learn which items contain 'hidden gluten' so you can avoid them Shop at farmers markets and health food shops. This is something that you may need to get used to, as the majority of food items sold in these places are gluten free but with a little creativity, it does not have to get expensive.

If you share a kitchen with non gluten free items, it can be a challenge but it need not be difficult.

find a dedicated space to prepare your food, and some dedicated storage too.

Again it doesn't have to be difficult once you have established you cannot eat gluten.

Try to find time to learn how to make your own food items.

Apart from being cheaper than shop bought, is great for knowing what exactly is going into your meal. You do not have to have a specific GF recipe, as you can adapt a 'normal' recipe to utilise your new products, but having some specific GF recipes when you have been newly diagnosed as celiac is helpful as it help a person with the transition of having to learn to live gluten free.

N.B. I quite often make GF cookies and brownies and my kids love them.
