I have been researching and researching all about Gluten and how it can affect some people’s bodies. Hubby has been asking me for the Cliff’s Note version of what I’ve read and I’m thinking this eBook is perfect for him!

Book Description:
The focus of a gluten related health condition is too often about what you can’t have. Food 101 – Gluten will show you natural foods that you can ADD to your diet to help reduce your symptoms and rebuild your digestive system.
Gluten was practically an unknown term 20 years ago that only those diagnosed with celiac disease were required to pay attention to. Now, 1 in every 16 people is diagnosed with some form of gluten intolerance, sensitivity, or allergy. Worse yet, according to some research, as much as 40% of the U.S. population may be affected by gluten-related health issues and not know it. Symptoms such as:
bloating – abdominal discomfort – pain or diarrhea – headaches and migraines – attention deficit disorder – muscular disturbances – lethargy – hyperactivity – joint pain
If you regularly experience more than one of these symptoms, you could have a gluten related health concern. Did you know there are proactive steps you can take to reduce these symptoms and rebuild your digestive system naturally?
Thanks for coming to Addicted to Saving! Here’s a little bit about me so you can know who’s behind all these posts!
My name is Liza and I began my money-saving journey in the Spring of 2009 as a way to stretch a limited household income. I had lost my job and my hubby was self-employed. I launched Addicted to Saving in November of 2009 and it has grown by leaps and bounds. Since then, my hubby and I have struggled with the ups and downs of two failed adoptions and are now LOVING being parents to our little man Asher who we brought home from Ethiopia in August of 2013. I feel incredibly blessed to be able to help you save money. My goal is that you will have FUN and become empowered to save more and more money each week..
I just wanted to tell you about another great book called “Wheat Belly”. The author was on the Dr. Oz show talking about the adverse effects of wheat and gluten. He also just recently released the “Wheat Belly Cookbook.” They are both so informative. He doesn’t encourage eating “typical” gluten free foods since most (like bread) are made from rice flour or tapioca, cornstarch, millet etc. These still spike your blood sugar like wheat products and cause the tired, “need a nap”, no energy thing. Anyways, he recommends bread from almond flour, flax seed, nut meals…. Good filling protein, no blood sugar spikes. Also from the angle of joint inflammation and abdominal distress, asthma, headaches, and weight gain. Sorry this post got so long. I just know how much better I feel in the 6 weeks I’ve been following it, not to mention several pounds lost. I’m going to download the free Kindle book too. Thanks for all your hard work, Liza!
One little ad on. Almond flour is pretty expensive, but I buy natural almonds when they are BOGO, with coupons if any are available, and then grind them up myself with my coffee grinder. Works great! 🙂
Thanks for the info Brenda! I’ve heard of Wheat Belly and love to hear your thoughts on it! I will watch it to see if I can find a deal on it 🙂 Have a great weekend!
