Day 4 Of 6 You Have Celiac Disease

Now lets talk grains.  Many grains contain gluten, and it can be hard in the beginning to know which ones are safe to eat.  In these past few years, more companies have marketed gluten free grains and products making it easier for those with Celiac disease. 

Although wheat may not be advertised on a certain product, it can still be in the ingredient list.  As with all foods, I can't stress enough to read every label.  Wheat hides in many products such as cake mix, cookies, candy bars and even ice cream.

Gluten free grains

Rice, cassava, corn, potato, beans, quinoa, millet, amaranth, flax, arrowroot, tapioca
gluten free oats, nut flours, gluten free flours

Grains to avoid

Wheat starch, wheat germ, wheat bran
Couscous
Farina
Farro
Einkorn
Durum
Graham flour

Barly
Rye
Pasta
Whole wheat bread or any bread not gluten free
