Gluten-Friendly

Gluten Friendly

A gluten-friendly diet is essential for individuals with celiac disease and other health conditions affected by gluten. Some people also use gluten-friendly diets to lose weight and reduce the risk of obesity or other preventable health issues. Diabetes Spectrum states, “A 2013 study found that 65% of American adults think gluten-free foods are healthier, and 27% choose gluten-free products to aid in weight loss.” LifeSpring Home Nutrition offers gluten-friendly meal options to individuals who avoid gluten for medical or personal reasons.

What Is Gluten?

According to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), “Gluten is a mixture of proteins that occur naturally in wheat, rye, barley, and crossbreeds of these grains.” Gluten is difficult for the body to digest, and not everyone with gluten sensitivity has a health condition like celiac disease. In some cases, people prefer gluten friendly meals as a preventative measure to reduce risks associated with certain conditions. Other individuals may choose to remove gluten from their diet for social reasons or to support a loved one with gluten sensitivity.

Many popular meals and foods include gluten products as a primary or added ingredient. Processed foods may also have small amounts of gluten, even if their listed ingredients do not contain grains. Gluten is commonly found in the following:

The prevalence of gluten makes it difficult for many people to enjoy a varied diet while avoiding gluten. LifeSpring Home Nutrition offers gluten-friendly meal options to help people manage gluten sensitivity. People who otherwise may not have access to a large variety of whole foods and fresh nutritional dishes can choose from many popular meals, including ones with gluten-friendly gravy or sauces. Clients are encouraged to speak with the registered dietician about any questions regarding gluten-friendly and medically tailored meals (MTM).

What Is a Gluten-Friendly Diet?

A gluten-friendly diet consists of fresh and prepared foods with no gluten added. According to MedlinePlus, “Many foods are naturally gluten-free, including:

People who require or prefer a gluten-friendly diet have multiple meal options when ordering weekly deliveries from LifeSpring Home Nutrition. The registered dietician ensures each meal is balanced and meets the needs of people with celiac disease or other health conditions. Dishes are prepared with the fewest additives, reducing the risk of gluten exposure. In addition, meals may have added nutrients to help individuals with conditions affecting their ability to digest foods.

Who Benefits From Gluten-Friendly Meals?

The exact cause of gluten intolerance is unknown and may vary depending on multiple factors. According to Gastroenterology and Hepatology, “One theory regarding the ability of gluten and its related proteins to cause gastrointestinal symptoms in the absence of an overt gluten-related disease states that human intestinal tracts have not yet fully evolved to deal with modern grain proteins, especially to the degree of exposure that is inherent in contemporary diets.” A gluten friendly diet can help people with unspecified gluten sensitivities.

Individuals with the following health issues also benefit from gluten friendly meals:

People with digestive and immune system conditions may benefit from a gluten-friendly diet. Individuals should consult with a medical professional before making extreme changes to their diet.

Examples of Gluten-Free Foods

Some gluten-friendly foods and ingredients used to make meals include:

LifeSpring Home Nutrition combines American staples and ethnic cuisine full of nutrient-rich ingredients. People choose dishes that meet their personal, medical, and cultural needs.

I had a catastrophic event requiring a long hospital stay and at discharge my HMO offered Lifespring meal services. Initially, I was offered a puree diet and then as I improved a regular diet. Staff were kind, patient, and their supervisor, Christina was extremely accommodating. This is an amazing company who goes the extra mile to ensure patients receive their meals promptly. The food is delicious with a variety of meals. I would highly recommend Lifespring.

Balanced meals excellent customer service. Thank you
I've been receiving Lifespring meals for the past several years. I find them to be fresh, convenient, and delicious! The meals are both balanced and nutritious, and, because they are prepared fresh, and then flash frozen; all one needs is a microwave! Delivery is prompt and courteous, and if ever you want to make a change, the friendly office staff is available by phone. Thank you, Lifespring! 🤗😘
