Gluten Free

To the ever-growing list of dietary no-no’s many health-conscious consumers are adding gluten - a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye.  For people with celiac disease - an autoimmune disorder that causes damage to the small intestine - cutting gluten can relieve a host of symptoms, including bloating, cramps, nausea, anemia, irritability and depression.  But many other people who haven't been diagnosed with the intolerance are jumping on the gluten-free bandwagon, bypassing the dinner rolls and bagels in search of a cure for fatigue and digestion ailments.  

"I think we're finding now, especially [among those with an] eastern European background, that gluten sensitivity is probably a lot more common than we thought it was," said Doug Cook, a Toronto-based registered dietitian. "Some people who give up gluten or cut back on a lot of wheat-based products feel better," he said. 

Cook says scaling back or eliminating gluten completely from a diet doesn't pose any health dangers to people who don't have celiac disease. He says while he's never been diagnosed with the disorder, he limits his own gluten intake.  

"I don't eat a lot of wheat because I [find] when I cut out wheat I just feel better," he said. "Most of my carbohydrates come from fruits and vegetables and rice."

Circle of Life Bakery

The Circle of Life Bakery started in late 2004 as a division of Grainharvest Breadhouse Inc., with the goal to supply nutritious and tasty products to people with food allergies. All of their baked goods are wheat free and most of them are gluten free as well, everything is produced in a separate facility, to insure that there is absolutely no cross contamination. Some years ago when people were diagnosed with allergies towards wheat and gluten (Celiac disease), the options of finding good tasting baked products were very limited. As a result, Circle of Life Bakery began providing much needed, nutritious and great tasting gluten free products to the Ontario market.
