    A nurse is recommending gluten-free foods to a client. Which of the following foods should the nurse recommend?

    Explanation & Rationale

    Brown rice is naturally gluten-free and safe for clients with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. Gluten is found in wheat, barley, and rye. Salami often contains wheat-based fillers or is processed in facilities with gluten cross-contamination. Wheat bread directly contains gluten. Canned cream of mushroom soup often contains wheat flour as a thickening agent. Clients must be taught to read food labels carefully.
