Ive said this before but...Gluten Free is quite the fad these days. However, Gluten Free is not intended to be a weight loss / weight management diet. A Gluten free diet is for those with Celiac Disease...these people are sick. If you have sensitivity (gas, bloating, stomach upset) when you eat / digest the gluten proteins found in wheat, barely, rye and some other grains, experts say it may be helpful to limit them. Be careful of self-diagnosis, many products marketed as Gluten Free are much higher in calories, because people with Celiac have trouble getting the calories and nutrients they need. And just fyi, many foods that are naturally gluten free are being marketed as such, because of the trend (ie: pickles, but that doesnt make pickles a great, nutritious food choice necessarily). Dont just follow trends and fad diets. Eat for nutrition!!!
