As a parent of a teen with Celiac, I have many middle-of-the-night ruminations. And no surprise, most center around food. Is it safe, is she getting enough, and is it meeting her nutritional needs?

That's why it felt like an answered prayer when, one night before dinner, my daughter requested the Savory Chicken and Leek Mashed Potatoes meal from ModifyHealth I had in the freezer. Even better, she ate the whole thing! All meals arrive frozen and are simply heat and eat.

Their focus is nutritiously balanced meals developed by a dietician, and everything they offer is gluten free, organic, and non-GMO. They have a great variety to choose from, too - perfect for when food fatigue sets in from eating the same meals over and over.

Gluten Free meals from ModifyHealth are perfect when you need something quick and can be easily stored in a dorm freezer. I was able to stack quite a few without using much freezer real estate.

This week on Facebook: a poster became concerned after googling if a ham product was gluten free. The AI overview stated that the animal feed contained gluten and therefore it wasn't gluten free even though the product had no gluten-containing ingredients.

This topic has come up and Beyond Celiac has addressed it a number of times. On the topic of whether beef from conventionally-raised, grain-finished cattle may contain gluten to date, basic principles of ruminant digestion have been cited in support of the prevailing expert opinion that beef is inherently gluten-free.

Meat is naturally gluten free. Plain, fresh cuts of meat, including beef, poultry (chicken, turkey, etc), rabbit, lamb and fish/seafood meat, are all gluten free. However, be careful with breaded or floured meats, which typically contain wheat and therefore gluten.
