Hi, I’m Steffen

Dad, celiac-kitchen cook, former triathlete.

Two years ago my younger son was diagnosed with celiac disease, and I found out I’m gluten intolerant too. I grew up in Swabia, spent almost a decade in the USA, and now live at the foot of the Black Forest. When I’m not working in IT, I’m running or cycling. Food has to fuel you, and it has to taste amazing.

Iron & zincQuinoa, buckwheat and amaranth for oxygen transport and a strong immune system.
Fiber & mineralsGut-friendly, high-fiber ingredients to help the body heal and stay efficient.
