Enough with this nonsense already! Yesterday at the grocery store, I compared Udis Gluten Free Sandwich Bread to regular sandwich bread and found Udis to not only be twice as expensive, but also twice the calories, carbs, sugar, and half the vitamins and minerals. Gluten free is NOT better for you, nor are you allergic unless you have Celiac Disease and only 2% of the worlds population actually does. Heres an article from Dr. Peter Green; More and more groceries and health food stores stock gluten-free products. That’s good news for people with celiac disease, who for health reasons should not eat wheat with gluten. Yet paradoxically, most of the people who reach for gluten-free products don’t have celiac disease and or even a sensitivity to wheat, Peter H.R. Green, MD, director of the Celiac Disease Center at Columbia University, told WebMD. The market for gluten-free products is exploding. Why exactly we don’t know. Many people may just perceive that a gluten-free diet is healthier. In fact, it isn’t. For people with celiac disease, a gluten-free diet is essential. But for others, unless people are very careful, a gluten-free diet can lack vitamins, minerals, and fiber, says Green.
