The real score of gluten free food in the market: What’s behind the gluten-free diet mania?
Gluten-free diet is not an uncommon diet as products in the supermarket mention them a lot. With not much effort to learn the purpose of the diet, but a lot of curiosity stirred by it, there have been a lot of converts when it comes to entering into the world of exclusive support for gluten free products. Yes, gluten free diet may work for your weight loss goals, but for some it is a necessity, not for their diet or to follow trends, but a diet to help them deal with their disease and other body conditions such as allergy.
Gluten-free diet has become a craze for people who are obsessed with trivial health products that, more often than not, they tend to forget that part of doing research first before going gaga over the products that seem to appear more fancy the with labels of “gluten-free” on it.
What is being overlooked in the scenario is that fact that the gluten free diet is something more than just trimming carbs and losing weight. It is actually for those people who have a condition called celiac disease. Gluten free diet is actually a remedy for health issues when it comes to certain substances or the ingredients present in most of the food we eat.
Consult an expert though gluten free food are easy to get
It is therefore important to consult an expert – doctors or nutritionist, before going all out with the diet. Gluten free food though may readily available in the market today still needs to be consulted with a doctor. At one point, it may help you lose weight effectively or develop a good eating habit but more importantly, your safety and health should always be the first concern when it comes to diet.
Thus, before trying what seems to be a diet fad today, do some research and assess if gluten free diet will work for you. There are a lot of myths to discredit and facts that will further deepen your understanding about what gluten free products can do to your body.
Do not get carried away by the gluten free labels you see even on restaurant menus. It would seem to invite and encourage customers, but the labels are actually printed to inform people with celiac disease that their meals are safe for them and will not trigger any allergic reactions.
Is gluten-free diet effective in losing weight?
Moreover, gluten-free diet is not actually an effective way to lose weight. It may work if you are willing to remove pasta, certain kinds of bread, and other carb products from your meal plans. But surprisingly, especially to those who thought gluten free diet became famous for being an effective diet, gluten free diet can actually contribute to your weight gain. It is because if you are just replacing food items with another product of the same kind labelled gluten free you may end up eating more calories. This seems to be the booby trap truth that needs to be disseminated in health and diet news channels as well. It would help people make better decisions and will also make the public more aware of the celiac disease.
Gluten free products are indeed popular items today. However, they are not popular for the right reasons. We must therefore first set the facts straight before going along with the trend and getting obsessed with the diet. It will help us not only achieve our goals effectively but also prevent us from getting mislead and misinformed while having our refrigerators filled with gluten free products.
