How to Eat Healthy and Gluten Free

This is the plan I like to go by and I think it is a good one.

Try to eat organic foods when possible, they have more nutrients in them.

  • Eat Alkaline Foods. Foods that don’t produce acid.
  • Eat Enough Fiber. 30 grams a day.
  • Watch your Glycemic/Blood Sugar Control. Don’t eat too much carbs and sweets.
  • Eat Meals of 40% Carbohydrates, 30% Protein and 30% Healthy Fats.
  • Stay away from Gluten and Avoid Cross Contamination.
  • Take your Vitamins/Minerals, Calcium/Magnesium, Zinc, EFA, Garlic, Probiotics, Digestive Enzymes, Antioxidants and Amino Acids daily.

People with Celiac Disease can Declare their “Gluten Free Food” as a Tax Deduction

If you have Celiac Disease you can write off your Gluten Free Food on your Taxes.

IRS Publication #502
Click on this link to get the publication, then click on Publ 502

Medical Expenses are the cost of diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment or prevention of disease and the costs of effecting any part or function of the body.
If you qualify you can deduct the difference between normal food and gluten free food.

You have to save all your receipts and have a certified letter and a prescription from your doctor. The letter has to say that it is medically necessary to eat gluten-free foods.

For a more detailed list look at this link from celiac.com.

This is not tax advice. I am just passing the information on. Talk to your tax professional to get your best information.

In a separate bowl mix together the liquid ingredients.
Add in:

1/2 Cup Melted Butter

3/4 cup Honey

2 whipped Eggs
2 tsp. Vanilla
1/3 cup Water

In a separate bowl mix together the dry ingredients.
1 1/2 cups gluten free baking flour mix.

1/2 cup each of the millet and sorghum flour. That is what I used as my gluten free baking flour mix).

What is Gluten Intolerance or Celiac Disease?

Gluten is a protein found in wheat, rye, barley, spelt and triticale.
They are prolamins (proteins) that cause damage to the digestive system.

Hairlike structures called villi are in the lining of the small intestine.
It helps to digest the nutrients in your food.

For people who have gluten intolerance or celiac disease,
gluten attacks the villi and makes it flat. Then you cannot absorb
the nutrients in your food. It is actually an autoimmune disorder.
You can also become intolerant to dairy and sugar.

The only way to reverse the process is to stay away from gluten
and the villi will grow back so that you can absorb the nutrients in
your food again.

Gluten Free Chicken Vegetable Soup

Lisa’s Chicken Vegetable Soup

Here is a great soup that I like to put together.

I like to use my George Foreman Jr. Rotisserie to cook a 4-5 pound chicken in it. So that there is not allot of grease in the soup and it is nice and tender. I like to baste the chicken with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder and Oregano.

In a Big Pot I add the rest of ingredients.
1 Box of Chicken Stock or Broth (I like to use Imagine Organic Chicken Broth, it has no sugar in it).
4-6 cups of Water
3-4 Chopped Yams
1-2 pounds of chopped Carrots
2 Bunches of chopped Celery
1 1/2 cups of Lentils
2 Tablespoons of Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to Taste
Garlic Powder and Onion Powder to Taste
Oregano and Thyme to Taste
Cook till the vegetables are tender.
Then add the Chicken.

I like to divide the soup and add more water then put half of it in the freezer for later.

I will sometimes use Brown Rice instead of the Lentils and alternate the Chicken for Hamburger or Beef.
