Nowadays, it’s hard to walk the aisles of a grocery store without seeing the words “gluten-free” in bold print on many of the packages. And it is for good reason, as gluten essentially causes irritation in your gut, due to the proteins that are in wheat products, which ultimately causes an inflammatory response. While gluten doesn’t affect everyone negatively, more and more of the population are discovering that they become victims when gluten hits their digestive track.
If you want to ensure that you aren’t a victim of the negative side effects of gluten, here are ten simple recipes that will keep you in the clear.
