Celiac Disease: ZeroCarb LYFE Can Help

Did you know celiac disease is hereditary? People that have a parent or sibling that has been diagnosed with celiac disease run a 1 in 10 risk of also developing it. 


Approximately one out of 100 individuals are diagnosed with celiac disease. When those who have been diagnosed consume gluten, it causes an immune response which results in their body attacking its own small intestine. Unfortunately, this can affect the way their body absorbs nutrients.


“It is estimated that up to 83% of Americans who have celiac disease are undiagnosed or misdiagnosed with other conditions.” - Beyond Celiac


Gluten is most commonly found in ingredients such as wheat, rye, and barley, making it challenging for those living with celiac to find delicious gluten-free foods. The good news is… not anymore! ZeroCarb LYFE has already created a gluten-free, carb-free, sugar-free, chicken-based pizza crust - a favorite among our customers living with celiac and those who struggle to find nutritious gluten-free food. 


One of our favorite things about these pizza crusts is it gives those living with celiac disease the freedom to create whatever they want. Hungry for a mouthwatering pizza? You got it! Craving a quesadilla? Say no more! Want your favorite wrap? Go for it! Our ZeroCarb LYFE frozen chicken crusts provide those with celiac - and everyone - the opportunity to be creative in the kitchen without compromising their diet.
