March is National Nutrition Month — Are You Going Gluten-Free? Mightylicious Gluten Free Cookie Co. offers 7 tips and tricks for Gluten-free Eating at Home & Dining Out

• How Do You know You are Gluten Intolerant? • Food & Beverage’s Top Pick • 7 varieties, 4 Vegan • Artisanal, Non-GMO, Kosher

(PRUnderground) March 26th, 2024

If you’ve vowed to adopt healthy habits by going gluten free in 2024, now is the perfect time to do so (March is National Nutrition Month). Gluten Free highlights the need for people with celiac disease, allergies, gluten intolerance, and other health conditions to maintain a strict gluten-free diet.

Going gluten-free isn’t always easy. The list of foods to avoid is long, and trace amounts of gluten are hiding everywhere. (We’re looking at you, French fries!) GF versions of staples like bread and pasta are often, well, unsatisfying.

That’s where Mightylicious cookies come in. These hand-crafted treats are 100% free of gluten, wheat, rye, barley, and RBST, and are made from all-natural, non-GMO ingredients. Every satisfying bite is packed with awesome flavor, perfect texture, and clean ingredients anyone can enjoy — not just people with celiac disease and allergies, but anyone who loves a good cookie.

So just how delicious is Mightylicious? The brand was a Top Pick in Food & Beverage Magazine’s 2023 Editor’s Top Products of Fall. Choose from 7 including 4 vegan options: New Double Dutch Chocolate Chip and Oatmeal Raisin Vegan, and Chocolate Chip and Grandma Arline’s Oatmeal Coconut.

Also available are Brown Butter Chocolate Chip and Brown Butter Shortbread (both dairy), and Salted Peanut Butter (grain and dairy-free).

Peanut Butter, Shortbread, and Brown Butter cookies, or go full-on vegan with their Chocolate Chip, Grandma Arline’s Oatmeal Coconut, Double Dutch, Chocolate Chip, and Oatmeal Raisin varieties.

Mightylicious is the brainchild of Carolyn Haeler, a cookie-loving entrepreneur who lives with celiac disease. She offers 7 tips for gluten-free eating at home and in restaurants:

  1. Store gluten-free and gluten-containing foods in different places.
  2. Keep cooking surfaces and food storage areas clean.
  3. Wash dishes and cooking equipment thoroughly.
  4. Toast bread in the oven — or consider separate toasters — to avoid cross-contamination.
  5. Consider keeping dedicated serving pieces, cutting boards, cookware, etc. for gluten-free food prep.
  6. Check food labels for gluten-free certification.
  7. Opt for restaurants with a gluten-free menu or use a gluten-free restaurant app.

What is gluten?

Gluten is a protein found in many grains including wheat, spelt, rye, and barley that becomes sticky when mixed with water. This stickiness helps the flour rise and gives adds a characteristically toothsome texture to baked goods.

What is celiac disease?

Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder triggered by gluten that affects about 2 million Americans. It damages the lining of the small intestine, causing digestive problems and preventing the body from absorbing nutrients. Long-term complications can be serious and may include malnutrition, anemia, and issues with the nervous system and reproductive system.

How do know if you have celiac disease?

If you suspect that gluten is causing discomfort, ask your doctor for a celiac disease screening. This typically starts with a blood test. If certain antibodies are present, a tissue biopsy can confirm any damage to your small intestine. The doctor may recommend a gluten-free diet and follow up after a few weeks. If your symptoms improve, they may confirm that you have celiac disease.
