A gluten-free diet does not necessarily mean giving up grains. The following is an overview of gluten-free cereals. Gluten is truly a part of everyday life, sometimes it seems almost unthinkable to make a meal that does not contain it.
However, it is completely prohibited for people suffering from celiac disease. A gluten-free diet usually means abstaining from grains, foods that are particularly rich in gluten. American nutritionist Corrine Fotheringham represents cereals that do not contain gluten at all.
Best of all, they are easy to prepare and very tasty and nutritious.
Amaranth
Amaranth has its roots in South America, and is rich in fiber and vitamin C. It is excellent for all people who struggle with celiac disease because it has a positive effect on the restoration of the entire digestive system.
Buckwheat
Buckwheat is a traditional peasant dish, widely present in our areas as well. It is rich in calcium and B vitamins. It has a special full and special taste, and it is most often prepared in the form of porridge.
Corn
Corn, as well as corn flour, is a rich source of fiber, vitamin C and vitamin A. If you have suffered from celiac disease and are trying to restore your cells and the amount of vitamin A in your body, polenta is the right thing for you.
Corn can be prepared and consumed in many different ways, including polenta. Polenta is a very tasty and nutritious form of corn that you can serve as a side dish with almost any dish.
Millet
Millet is often a marginalized grain that is not used as much in modern times. However, it is very nutritious and easily digestible, it is quite cheap and profitable, it is rich in B vitamins and potassium. Also, millet can regulate the pH value inside our body and thus help maintain the acid-base balance of the entire organism.
Quinoa
Quinoa has recently become one of the more popular and well-known grains. It is rich in iron and proteins.
Rice
Rice is a globally widespread cereal that has been used for centuries. It is rich in thiamine and does not contain gluten. If you want to balance your blood sugar level, opt for basmati rice, which will take longer for your body to digest. For a higher proportion of fiber, integral (brown) rice is recommended.
Chinese sugar cane
Sugarcane is one of the lesser-known grains that is considered gluten-free. Probably a large number of people do not even know that sugar cane can be consumed as a cereal. It is quite difficult to find it in its integral form, however, sugar cane flour is an excellent food for the preparation of various bakery products, of course – without gluten.
Teff
Teff is a food that is very widespread in Ethiopian cuisine. It is rich in protein, fiber and other nutrients. Some even call it a supergrain because it contains five times more calcium, iron and potassium than all other grains.
