For those who want to make homemade bread, there are a number of cookbooks with gluten-free baking recipes. In addition, there are many gluten free breads available in chain grocery stores and neighborhood bakeries as more and more people are health conscious and are even inquiring about the healthy benefits of gluten free bread.


4 Health Benefits of Gluten Free Bread

1)  Manage Celiac Disease – Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that has a generic component, meaning it runs in families. People with celiac disease cannot tolerate any type of protein from wheat, rye, barely and oats. It is a big problem since there is no clue, and dietary restrictions is the only available treatment. Since many processed convenience foods contain gluten, diligent label checking becomes part of the gluten-free lifestyle. Consumers with Celiac disease can now enjoy a tasty bread again without worrying about affecting the digestive process. 2) Healthy Digestive Tract – People with gluten intolerance can develop scar tissue and delayed gastric emptying from attempting to digest gluten-containing foods, which has unpleasant symptoms like bloating, cramps and gas. By contrast, gluten-free bread is friendly to the digestive tract. The nutrients in gluten free bread are fully used and encourage the production of friendly bacteria populations in the intestines.


3) Rich in Fiber – Since gluten-free bread cannot be made from low-quality, commercially bleached wheat flour, it uses other sources of ingredients to provide texture and flavor. For example, whole rice flour, xanthan gum and flaxseed meal are common ingredients in gluten-free bred recipes. Since most Americans do not consume enough dietary fiber, gluten-free bread is a good addition to the diet.

4) Freshness – The flours and seeds used in gluten-free breads will turn rancid and moldy quickly without the commercially added preservatives from mass market brands. Buying a loaf of gluten-free bread means that it has to be quite fresh. Some grocers will freeze or refrigerate gluten-free breads to ensure that the consumer will get a fresh loaf. The bread will be moist and have a good flavor.

There you have it, 4 essential health benefits of gluten free bread, now you don’t have to fee guilty about eating so much bread.
