Cole Mila – Dietitian (Gluten-Free Specialist) at GlutenFreez

Hey There! I’m Cole Mila

Registered Dietitian | Gluten-Free Specialist | Everyday Wellness Advocate | Age 41

Austin-based dietitian who believes safe, trustworthy recipes can bring both health and joy.

Why I Chose This Path

Nutrition wasn’t always my focus. In my twenties, I was passionate about fitness, but I kept seeing friends struggle with food sensitivities that no workout could solve. When one of my closest friends was diagnosed with celiac disease, I saw how overwhelming it was for him to navigate meals, family gatherings, and even grocery shopping.

That experience inspired me to go back to school, become a dietitian, and dedicate myself to helping people with gluten sensitivities find food freedom.

The Turning Point for Me

Early in my career, I worked in a clinic where a young patient felt hopeless after her celiac diagnosis. She told me, “I’ll never enjoy food again.” I remember sitting with her, breaking down her favorite recipes, and showing her how to make safe versions step by step.

The look of relief on her face when she realized she could still enjoy her favorite cookies was unforgettable. That was the moment I knew: this isn’t just about food — it’s about giving people hope and confidence.

What I Learned From Experience

As a dietitian, I’ve seen countless clients frustrated by misleading labels, confusing substitutions, and recipes that simply don’t work. I’ve also made my own mistakes — recommending complicated meal plans that weren’t realistic for busy families.

The hard truth I’ve learned is this: if a recipe isn’t practical, it won’t help anyone. Trust is built not only through nutrition science, but through food that fits into real life.

How I Guide People Today

My approach is rooted in safety, simplicity, and inclusivity. Every recipe we feature on GlutenFreez is checked for gluten safety and designed to be approachable for beginners and busy families.

I blend evidence-based nutrition with real-world experience, making sure that gluten-free living feels less like restriction and more like discovery.

What I Believe

  • Safe food should be the starting point, never a luxury.
  • Gluten-free recipes must be reliable and trustworthy.
  • Nutrition should empower, not overwhelm.
  • Inclusivity matters — everyone deserves to enjoy the table together.
  • Food can heal, connect, and comfort all at once.

A Bit About Me

Outside of work, I love hiking around Austin, experimenting with gluten-free barbecue rubs, and spending time with my wife and two kids. I’m a big fan of local farmer’s markets, and I believe some of the best family memories are made around the dinner table.
