You may have noticed your local grocery store
redoing part of their frozen food and grocery
sections to accommodate all gluten-free San Diego
products. You may have been wondering what all
the fuss is about gluten free products and
whether it is just one of those many dietary
crazes or are there potential health benefits to
be gained. For those who dont know, gluten is a
protein found in the kernel of wheat, barley and
rye. It's something that most of us have been
consuming all of our lives - especially since
gluten in one form or another is in so many
products including anything with wheat flour in
it or wheat-based products such as soy sauce,
malt vinegar and so much more.

There are several reasons why people might avoid
it and start looking for gluten free restaurants
when they want to eat out. In those with Celiac
Disease, autoimmune disorder that affects the
lining of the small intestine and can lead to
serious digestive problems and malnutrition,
consuming gluten irritates and damages their
bowel. These people, some of whom are children
must be very careful and not even eat in gluten
free restaurants near me where food is prepared
in utensils where gluten ingredients are also
used.

Another group of people that will insist on
gluten free San Diego options or at least wheat
and its derivatives are those with gluten or
wheat sensitivity. Symptoms of this can include
sneezing, unexplained runny nose, abdominal
bloating, hives, diarrhea, headaches and more.
Reports indicate that Chelsea Clinton reportedly
served gluten free wedding cake at her wedding
because she has gluten sensitivity. There is a
long-standing belief that gluten consumption can
aggravate existing autoimmune illnesses such as
eczema, multiple sclerosis, Crohn's disease and
others. This doesn't necessarily mean that gluten
consumption causes the disease but rather that it
may inflame these conditions or contribute to
flare-ups.

Fortunately, there are now many products
available that are good-tasting substitutes that
are served in gluten free restaurants San Diego.
Although once only found in health food stores,
gluten free San Diego products have gone main
stream and can now be found in most grocery
stores. And while not all of these products have
the same taste, texture and consistency of their
counterparts, you can experiment to find ones
that you like in the best gluten free restaurants
near me. A good example is gluten-free pasta that
is served in the best gluten free restaurants.

Eating out can get tricky because you never know
what's been added to a dish. But it's easy enough
to ask if any wheat, barley or rye were used,
including soy sauce. Better still, you can choose
to patronize only the best gluten free
restaurants that specialize in service gluten
free San Diego. The best thing about gluten free
restaurants San Diego is that any foods that may
contain wheat or gluten such as some food
starch, couscous, spelt, bran, brewer's yeast and
more are not served gluten free restaurants are
now providing excellent products and labeling
them as such.
