    Introduction

    Normally, when people talk about going grain free they mean particularly wheat free. Wheat is found in so many food products today, especially in processed foods. However, the there is a rise in the number of people who experience health issues if they consume wheat, and in particular, the gluten part of the wheat. With the rise of wheat or gluten intolerances and allergies, the need for more alternatives for food has surfaced. First, let's talk about the health issues consuming wheat may cause.

    Health Issues From Consuming Wheat

    Wheat has a high glycemic index level. This means it converts to sugar easily in the body, which in turns converts to excessive weight gain and fat. People wanting to lose weight may find if they avoid wheat, they lose the weight easier.

    Allergies to wheat can cause symptoms of IBS or irritable bowel syndrome. Other issues that may show up are migraine headaches, asthma irritations, fatigue, skin issues, and yeast infections. Sometimes people will have one or more of these symptoms and after going off the wheat will find relief. If you have any of these symptoms, you may ask your healthcare provider about having an allergy test done to see if it is caused by wheat. Or try the diet and see if you have relief.

    Autism patients may show improvement if they go on a gluten free diet. For parents of autistic children, this is good news, as it may provide some help in treatment. Again, ask the healthcare provider about this possibility.

    Some people may have difficulties in the absorption of minerals if they consume wheat. This may be why they show the above symptoms. Certainly, it is best for the body if it is able to absorb all the nutrients from the foods we eat. Going on a grain free diet allows the body to have a chance to absorb all the nutrients from nutritious foods.

    Tips for a Grain Free Diet

    If you have studied the grain free diet you may have run across a diet called the Paleo Diet. This is a diet believed eaten by our Stone Age ancestors. The main component of the diet is the absence of grains. This grain free cookbook is not the Paleo Diet, because the recipes here do include foods on the avoid list for the Paleo Diet, but it is interesting that it is also a popular diet that works that does not include grains. Our Stone Age ancestors were a healthy bunch, living to ripe old ages (older than we do) and without many of the health ailments we suffer.

    In addition to the recipes included in this book, there are ways to avoid grains if you stop and think about it. The first thing you should do is plan your meals. You may want to vary your meals, by cooking stuff that is not included in this book. That is okay, you stay grain free if you simply avoid grains. Here are some tips:

    For breakfast, look at the recipes provided here and include healthy portions of eggs. Eggs are so versatile; you can fry them, scramble them, poach them, and boil them.
