Gluten Free and Nutritionally Complete
 By Martha Rosenau, RD
Undiagnosed Celiac Disease can lead to damage to the intestinal villi, malabsorption and nutritional deficiencies. The gluten-free (GF) diet, critical to long-term health and management of celiac disease, can also result in nutritional deficiencies, because GF convenience foods often lack essential nutrients found in wheat-based products.
To make sure you are getting the nutrients you need to restore intestinal health and offset any possible nutritional gaps, choose GF whole grains, and enriched or fortified grains and starches whenever possible. A nutritionally complete GF diet also includes nonfat or low fat dairy products, lean meats, a variety of fruits and vegetables, and legumes. The following gluten-free grains offer the right mix of vitamins, minerals and protein to promote intestinal healing and maintain proper health:
Amaranth High in protein, calcium, iron, magnesium, zinc and fiber
Buckwheat A terrific source of fiber, protein, riboflavin and niacin
Millet Loaded with B vitamins (particularly folic acid) and fiber
Quinoa High in iron, calcium, magnesium, B vitamins and fiber
Teff A great source of protein, calcium, iron, magnesium and zinc
Oats Packed with soluble fiber, zinc, B vitamins and protein
