In many parts of the country, snow and cold weather are synonymous with the month of February. Other images that may come to mind this time of year are the red hearts often connected with Valentine’s Day and the celebration of Heart Health month. On the subject of heart health, did you know that the American Heart Association recommends that folks consume three or more servings of whole grains daily?

Due to our nation’s long history and relationship with foods containing wheat as a main ingredient (as well as barley and rye), it’s easy for the mind to automatically associate “gluten” with “whole grains”. However, it’s important to remember that there are many whole grains that are gluten-free, such as whole grain corn, oats, brown rice, millet, quinoa and more!

From Glutenfreeda’s Instant Oatmeal to our Granola and from our Artisan Flatbreads to our Pocket Sandwiches, so many of our offerings contain ample amounts of whole grains and quite a few also include the Whole Grains Council stamp on the package to indicate how many whole grains each product contains per serving.

Since our products are so delicious it’s often easy to forget that they’re healthy too! Share the love this month with your family and friends: Make sure Glutenfreeda’s products are well-stocked in your freezer and pantry!
