Escaping the grains with HomeGrown Bakery!

slider1Portland Pedal Power loves partnering with businesses that make healthy ingredients their top priority. That’s one of the reasons we love working with HomeGrown Bakery! Take a look at why how HomeGrown Bakery creates healthy treats without sacrificing taste:

HomeGrown Bakery is baking delicious grain free pastries right out of Portland Oregon. We use our own blend of only coconut and almond flour that’s packed with protein. Our ingredients are naturally gluten free, grain free & dairy free. Many other gluten free flour substitutes are nutrition-less and empty.

We use local organic honey and occasionally coconut sugar, instead of refined sugars or agave. We are local in Portland, Oregon and we try and keep our product that way, using ingredients closest to us whenever possible.

Why Shift to a Grain-Free / Paleo Diet?

slider2Eating a grain-free / Paleo diet is the elimination of all grains including wheat, rice, corn, barley, rye and oats from your diet. People with Celiac, wheat allergies or other digestive conditions have difficulty tolerating these grains. Many people find that they need to eliminate all grains from their diet to feel better. People following a paleo diet eat more nutritional foods such as fish, meat, vegetables, fruits, and nuts.

Thousands of people worldwide are experiencing significant relief or improvement from many conditions including: Crohn’s disease, chronic fatigue, epilepsy, Autism, arthritis, ADD, Schizophrenia, auto-immune disorders, Metabolic Syndrome X, insulin resistance and many more illnesses and disorders.

Improvements from above conditions have been noted possible by eliminating grains and sugars from your diet.
