Most people don't even know this is an option....
Got this through a Facebook friend, but I don't remember which one (sorry). Believe it or not, in the U.S., you can deduct some of the expense of gluten-free specialty foods from your taxes, subject to limitations of course:
Is the Tax Deduction for Gluten Free Food Worth the Hassle?
Unfortunately for me, it is NOT worth the hassle, even though my medical expenses are up to 25 percent of my income each year. I would have to eat nothing but specialty foods for the receipts to add up to anything deductible. Now, if I were trying to feed an entire family a special diet, it might be different, but Dan eats regular food 90 percent of the time.
