7 Ways To Make Your Gluten-Free Life Instantly Better!

Let’s face it: being gluten-free can be lonely. I certainly remember feeling pretty miserable at times after my diagnosis of coeliac disease. But that doesn’t mean you have to go through the same thing. Here are 7 ways to make life so much easier for yourself…

5️⃣ Foreign Food Labels:

Decode food labels abroad by using Google Lens which will translate into English. This was really helpful for my recent trip to Bulgaria.

6️⃣ Local Gluten-Free Meet Ups

Find out where your local gluten-free meet-ups are by going to Coeliac UK and looking at their list of events. You'll find all sorts to get involved in from coffee mornings to marathons - whatever takes your fancy!

7️⃣ Strength Training for Healthy Bones:

It’s not all about food; coeliacs are at a greater risk of osteoporosis, but this doesn’t mean you’ll suffer. Take a calcium supplement (Osteocare does a gluten-free version) and incorporate strength training exercises into your routine to take care of your bones and overall well-being. Chat to your doctor, pop to your local gym or book a consultation with a personal trainer to get started on your bone-strengthening journey. And be sure to send me pics of your new muscles!
