Brownies embody everything a dessert should be: chewy and full of chocolate. And, we believe everyone should be able to enjoy a warm, freshly baked brownie despite dietary restrictions. Whether you’re gluten-free or simply want to try something new, meet your new favorite brownie recipe: gluten-free brownies.

Previous blog posts have spoken about the reasoning behind choosing a gluten-free diet, but it’s important to highlight why those who suffer from Lyme Disease or Osteoarthritis to specifically choose this lifestyle.

A gluten-free diet is one that excludes the protein gluten, which is most commonly found in wheat, barley, and rye. Gluten has been linked to damage and inflammation of the small intestine. Furthermore, gastrointestinal problems may occur as a consequence of this. When you suffer from a chronic illness such as Lyme Disease or Osteoarthritis, any extra inflammation could lead to a larger problem.
