Despite what many people might think, a gluten-free diet can be just as unhealthy as the standard American diet (also known as SAD). This is due to the fact that most store-bought gluten-free items—as well as many recipes in gluten-free cookbooks—include refined sugar, starches, fillers, and other nutrient-dead foods. You’re likely familiar with some of these ingredients already:<BR><ul> <li>White rice flour</li> <li>Potato starch</li> <li>Xantham gum</li> <li>Cornstarch</li> <li>Tapioca flour</li> <li>Guar gum</li></ul><DIV> </div><DIV><i>Healthier Gluten-Free </i>is a unique cookbook that educates the reader on how to cook <i>without</i> nutritionally deficient ingredients like xanathan gum and starchy flours and instead prepare recipes and meals that focus on flavorful, health-full, naturally gluten-free ingredients, such as: </div><ul> <li>Healthy whole grains (brown rice, quinoa, buckwheat, etc.—all of which are gluten-free)</li> <li>Healthy flours (almond flour, coconut flour, millet flour)</li> <li>Healthy fats and binding agents (coconut oil, nut butters, eggs, avocado)</li> <li>Healthy sweeteners (maple syrup, molasses, honey)</li> <li>An abundance of produce and lean meats</li></ul><DIV></div><DIV>It’s clean eating, gluten-free style.<b><u><BR><BR></u></b></div>
