At Grupo Alsur, we understand the importance of healthy and accessible food for everyone. That is why, on the occasion of National Coeliac Day, we want to highlight our commitment to people living with this condition and to those who, although they are not coeliac, opt for a gluten-free diet to improve their gastrointestinal symptoms.
All our preserved vegetables, artichokes, roasted peppers, broad beans… are completely gluten-free, thus guaranteeing safe consumption for everyone and, of course, full flavour and quality.
Coeliac disease affects a significant part of the world’s population, making the consumption of gluten-free products a daily challenge. On this day, we remember the importance of offering products that are not only appetising, but also offer peace of mind that they are suitable for all members of the family.
Vegetales Alsur: gluten-free nutritional treasures
We are proud to be able to offer a wide range of gluten-free preserved vegetables, ideal for the whole family to eat a balanced and nutritious diet.
Our artichokes are an excellent choice for any meal. As well as being versatile and delicious, artichokes are rich in fibre, antioxidants and vitamins.
Roasted peppers, on the other hand, are not only a delight to the palate, but also an incredible source of vitamin C and antioxidants. Their unique texture and flavour make them an indispensable ingredient in many recipes.
We could not forget our preserved broad beans, which are, without a doubt, a true traditional delicacy. Rich in protein and fibre, they are an excellent complement to a balanced, gluten-free diet.
All of these preserves are perfect for inclusion in the diets of people with coeliac disease, as well as for those seeking to reduce their gluten intake for health or wellness reasons, such as FODMAP diets, diets for people suffering from Irritable Bowel Syndrome; people diagnosed with SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth) or IMO (Intestinal Methanogenic Overgrowth), which are becoming more and more widespread in the population.
Beyond the world of coeliacs: the gluten-free trend
In recent years, the demand for gluten-free products has grown exponentially, not only among coeliacs, but also among those seeking a healthier, anti-inflammatory diet.
While it is true that gluten consumption is associated with increased inflammation, gastrointestinal problems and weight gain, those who do not have coeliac disease or who do not suffer from gastrointestinal problems should not radically eliminate its consumption.
Such decisions should always be supported and supervised by a nutritionist, as some foods labelled as “gluten-free” may have less fibre, iron and vitamins than those with gluten. However, preserved vegetables, as mentioned above, are a natural source of fibre and vitamins. In addition, they are practical and have a long shelf life and can be stored for long periods of time without losing their properties.
On this day, we reaffirm our commitment to quality, health and food inclusion. We want everyone, regardless of their dietary and nutritional needs, to be able to enjoy our delicious canned vegetables. Because at Grupo Alsur, we firmly believe in a healthy and balanced diet for everyone.
