Guidelines on gluten free units on your prescription
The amount of gluten free foods recommended on your gluten free prescription is based on advice from healthcare experts as well as input from patient organisations and patients themselves. They review nutrition data to establish a benchmark for gluten free foods, consider the eatwell plate as a model for balanced eating and consider a reasonable quantity to maintain a balanced diet from eating gluten free staple foods you can get on prescription and gluten free natural foods such as potatoes and rice. The number of units assigned are based on eating the prescribable gluten free foods in one month.
The below guidelines suggest the approximate amount of gluten free food (classified in units) needed for a person with coeliac disease. Naturally, the guidelines vary according to age and gender.
Child 1–3 years 10 units
Child 4–6 years 11 units
Child 7–10 years 13 units
Child 11–14 years 15 units
Child 15–18 years 18 units
Male 19–59 years 18 units
Male 60–74 years 16 units
Male 75+ years 14 units
Female 19–74 years 14 units
Female 75+ years 12 units
Women in 3rd trimester of pregnancy: Add 1 unit
Breastfeeding women: Add 4 unit
