Where can one purchase those gluten free wraps? What are they made of?
Love the food so think racipe will help
your materials are super and simple to understand. You do give rich time to your rearches. Thanks so much for big contributions to health issues. God bless you immensely.
I can’t thank you enough for the good information about low potassium and foods and recipes that help! My twin sister has been diagnosed with low electrolytes /potassium and I exhibit symptoms as well.these recipes will be great for me to try!
I’m allergic to peppers and I hate cilantro. What would be good alternatives?
You can easily customize this wrap to fit your preferences. You could add anything — tomatoes, black beans, chicken, cumin, chili powder, etc.
Nice meal
Your Avocado salad wrap looks healthy and good, but it is missing 2 ingredients. Greek Tzatziki sauce and a dash of hot pepper sauce.
I do not like cilantro…is there another option. I have noticed a lot of it being used in recipes.
Cilantro tastes like soap to me. Parsley works great for me.
You can use a mixture of arugula parsley and mint or watercress
My taste buds are Not a fan of cilantro either.(too bad it is so nutritious 🥲). I frequently substitute parsley for cilantro.
Is there a food with similar attributes? I’m not willing to eat an avocado.
I’m eating mostly raw veggies, some cooked and fruit, along with pumped up smoothies and juicing, for medical reasons. I loved wraps but miss them. Any other suggestions without having to make a wrap? Thank you
Wrap it all in a lettuce leaf.
Toufayan make great gf wraps spinach, tomato,plain
I utilized buttercrunch lettuce or romain in place of wraps….also swiss chard.
Love Dr Axe’s daily news letters and info especially the essential oils.
Hi dr. Axe,
I’m a breast feeding mum. Is it safe to have goji berries at this time?
I’m not allergic to any food, so is it still important to buy gluten-free products? Thanks!

Love avocados! This looks wonderful. I took your advice from one of your videos and ate some avocado when I couldn’t sleep. Wow! Thank you! I’ve been sleeping because when I can’t, I go eat half an avocado and then I fall asleep! How can this be? I can’t tell you how much I appreciate your advice!
there are several sleep issues related to low magnesium. maybe that’s it? magnesium is found in avocados. : )
You need to be checked for celiac disease this is one of the classic symptoms
Please list gluten free brands of wraps.
Looks fantastic.
suggestions for a great gluten free grain free wrap.
We are adding new recipes to the site this week and one of them is a cauliflower wrap! Look for it!
I was recently in South Africa and cauliflower wraps are very popular there, being sold in mainstream supermarkets.
Could you post the link to the cauliflower wrap recipe please. I had searched your site and can’t seem to find it. Thank you!
