Feb G-Free Treats & news

Fish update: The Environmental Working Group (the fine folks that put together the Dirty Dozen list) have new fish recommendations as of Jan 2014. I have a summary and my thoughts here. While the omega 3s from fish are important for everyone in terms of heart health, triglycerides, etc., they’re particularly useful for the gluten-free community, since they reduce inflammation. Autoimmune diseases are inflammatory, and there’s specific research on omega 3s on conditions that are linked to Celiac and gluten sensitivity, such as Rheumatoid Arthritis, Sjogren’s, bipolar disorder, Schizophrenia, MS, IBD (Ulcerative Colitis and Crohn’s), and many others.
