Many people, myself included have mistakenly believed the wheat-free and gluten-free were the same thing. This is of course not the case. The only way to steer clear of gluten is to read labels and opt for whole foods which you know are without gluten, as often as possible. What makes gluten so tricky is that, like sugar, it is often lurking in very unlikely places. I found that reading labels constantly is really time consuming and annoying. This is why opting for whole foods that you know are gluten free, is in many ways easier and that is what I suggest. Processed foods seem easy until you factor in the gluten. While it is not always possible the more gluten-free, whole foods you eat the better your long term health will likely be and you will avoid gluten at the same time.

Besides being loaded with vitamins and minerals, the American Institute for Cancer Research suggests that the minerals, vitamins and phytochemicals in plant foods could interact in ways that boost their individual anti-cancer effects. I admit it’I struggle to eat enough vegetables. Do you. So I add them to a variety of dishes. For example, we make pizza on the weekends and it’s loaded with veggies; I add them to omelets and to scrambled eggs, dip them in hummus for a snack or slice peppers and cucumbers to go on top of a sandwich. Last week I made split pea and barley soup and added chopped spinach, carrots and onion.

I don't like Ensure and Boost, as there's a lot of sugar in these products. No sugar is needed in smoothies since whole fruits like bananas are naturally sweet.
