Gluten-free living

I will be continuing with The Four Agreements, but first, a quick bit on Celiac disease...

Celiac disease is being diagnosed at a much higher rate than ever before. A gluten-free diet is the only choice for someone with Celiac disease. For those with Celiac, when gluten is introduced into the body, it flattens the microvilli in the stomach and doesn't allow for the absorption of nutrients. The gluten-free diet eliminates these problems.

Gluten is found naturally in all wheat flours. It is also very prevalent in processed foods. Eliminating it altogether can seem daunting, to say the least. No bread, no pasta, no, no, no...


Enter La Bella Living.


At La Bella Living all of the cooking we do is gluten-free and sugar-free (we do use regular pasta for some of our clients by request). We do everything from fresh pasta to homemade crab cakes (baked, never fried). We do kitchen makeovers to help those with gluten intolerance better make the switch to gluten-free products. We've also developed an amaizing line of gluten-free baked goods. To make a long story short, we're out to show everyone that you can still eat fabulous food...without gluten.


This week, as requested, I will be posting some delicious gluten-free recipes. Live beautifully today!
