Last night, I was invited to join a going-away dinner for a friend that reminded me how easy gluten-free basics can be.\u00a0 She wanted to meet at her favorite Italian restaurant.\u00a0 The menu is not online, so there was no way to prepare in advance for possible ordering options.\u00a0 Armed with a server card, I went without a back-up plan, trusting that I could find a suitable option. As it turns out, this restaurant offered gluten-free pasta, so ordering was easy.<\/p>\n

The simplicity of my interaction with the waitress piqued the interest of the woman to my right.\u00a0 She asked, “Is it pretty easy to follow that diet?”<\/p>\n

My answer was yes.\u00a0 All I have to avoid are foods containing wheat, rye, barley, malt and their derivatives.\u00a0 I also avoid oats unless they’re certified gluten-free.\u00a0 The list of foods I can eat is much longer than the list of foods I cannot.\u00a0 The only area in which I feel limited is processed food.<\/p>\n

To fully eliminate gluten from your diet, it is important to review the ingredient list on all foods before you decide to consume them. If you live in the US, you’ll even need to read the ingredients on products that say “Gluten-Free”.\u00a0 Why?\u00a0 The FDA has never established a standard for foods to qualify as gluten-free.<\/p>\n

When I eliminated gluten from my eating plan, label reading quickly became part of my daily routine. It’s not too time consuming, and it doesn’t take long for it to become a habit.\u00a0 It’s one of the few simple steps required for gluten-free living. Print out this list, and give it a try!<\/p>\n
