Where to Find Gluten-Free Sources of Fiber

For those who suffer from a gluten allergy, maintaining a well-balanced diet can become a complex feat. Indeed, it’s often not until you’re told to refrain from consuming gluten, that you come to the realization in terms of just how many products are actually gluten filled. That being said, difficult is by no means impossible. While it may take a bit more reading and research on behalf of each consumer, it is entirely possible to eat a gluten-free, balanced diet. The following represents the best ways to find gluten-free sources of fiber.

Almonds/ Almond Flour
