I am a strong advocate of living gluten free. Once I removed
gluten from my diet, my life improved so much that I can truly
say I am a changed person. I love getting up every morning
because I feel wonderful. And, I get more joy out of the food I
eat than I ever did before.
I quit eating gluten after reading an article about gluten intolerance and celiac disease in an April, 2006 edition of Parade magazine. I realized that several of the health problems associated with an inability to tolerate gluten were the same ones I was dealing with every day. Migraine headaches and intestinal problems, which had caused me misery since I was a teenager, were so unmanageable that avoiding gluten seemed easy in comparison.
The reward for eliminating gluten from my diet was immediate. After six months of gluten-free living, a number of chronic medical conditions, including the migraines and intestinal problems, were simply gone.
I've learned quite a bit about living a gluten-free life over the last four years. I've read books and magazines, tried hundreds of gluten-free foods and found many restaurants that make wonderful meals I can eat. I've been to several cooking classes. But, I discovered everything pertaining to gluten-free living in Albuquerque by accident. And, I missed events, such as the Albuquerque Gluten Intolerance Support Group meetings, that would have made my life much easier- especially at the beginning of this adventure.
GlutenFreeAlbuquerque.com consolidates everything I learned about places to go and food to eat for those living without gluten in Albuquerque, NM. If there is an event or business that you would like to see included on this website, please e-mail me at gflady@GlutenFreeAlbuquerque.com. I look forward to hearing from you!
