Gluten – Friend or Foe?

Yum

June 5, 2015 By estherjane13 3 Comments

These days you can’t walk down an aisle at the grocery store without coming across a multitude of products all advertising their ‘gluten-free’ status. The list of items labelled gluten-free is endless – bread, pasta, cereal, chocolate, yogurt, vegetables, and even water. But what exactly is gluten?  Was it even in those products to begin with? Should you be avoiding it? And are gluten-free products healthier than regular ones? This excellent video from TedEd by William D. Chey explains it all.

    Thank you for posting this! I feel like many people do not actually know what gluten is.

      Thanks for your comment. I quite agree. I often hear people say they are going gluten free to be healthy, without actually knowing what it means.
