Thousands of people are changing to a gluten free or plant based diet for their overall health and wellness, some are choosing this type of food due to allergies and intolerances. Gluten free noodles are made with simple ingredients to provide an allergy-free comfort food that you can enjoy with your favorite sauces.

Pasta, Chinese and Japanese foods are all known as classic comfort foods. Think of your favorite spaghetti bolognaise or a delicious vegetable soup with noodles. There is a recipe for every occasion. The problem is that most pastas and noodles are made from wheat, which isn't a good choice if you gluten intolerant. This means that many have to refrain from eating their favorite dishes.

Gluten free noodles have grown in popularity for those with food allergies and gluten intolerances. They have also become poplar for those that are making positive lifestyle choices.

The most common reason why you may choose gluten free noodles is you have an allergy to wheat. If you have been diagnosed with Celiac disease, then your body cannot digest the gluten properly, which triggers an immune response ...
... in the small intestine and have a negative impact on the small intestine lining. This prevents the absorption of the nutrients leading to gastric distress.

The second most common reason to choose gluten free noodles is that you have an intolerance to gluten, which is a less severe form of allergy. Those with an intolerance may have stomach pain and bloating when eating any foods that contain gluten, such as regular pasta or noodles.

Then there are those that choose gluten free noodles for a lifestyle choice. Decreasing the gluten is down to personal preference, often chosen by those that are looking for a healthy plant based diet option.

Gluten free noodles are made without wheat. They are often made with buckwheat flour, sweet potato, corn and rice, sometimes potato flour. They have a great taste and texture, enabling you to use them in all your favorite recipes. The great thing about the gluten free noodles is they can easily be incorporated into a healthy diet.

Have you been wanting to change to gluten free but have heard some myths about gluten free noodles? Some of the most common myths include the fact that gluten free is healthier and while they are a better choice if you have an allergy or intolerance, they are not more or less healthy than regular noodles or pasta. In fact, the nutrient profiles are similar, all that chances is the ingredients.

Another common myth about gluten free noodles is that they are low carb. Yes some options may be low carb, but not all of them. If you find a noodle that is made from vegetables, then they are low carb and will not taste like an original pasta, though they will still be delicious.

Some people are under the impression that gluten free noodles are harder to cook than regular noodles, again a myth. They are just as easy, simply follow the package instructions from the manufacturer to cook the perfect noodles every time.

The final myth that needs to be mentioned is that gluten free tastes bad. This is not true. Gluten free noodles are made using natural ingredients, probably some you already eat, such as sweet potato. Once you pair the noodles with your favorite sauce, you will have a delicious dish you can enjoy again and again.
