Hi. This is Mark from iloveweightloss.co.uk. Today, I'm going to tell you that eating gluten-free
doesn't always make you more healthy. Now, a lot of people are realizing they're gluten-intolerant
and that they get a bad reaction when they eat gluten-containing foods. We have been
saying this a long time and in fact the last five or six years, we have been suggesting
to our clients that they reduce the gluten that they eat or actually eradicate it completely.
Now, you'll notice that manufactures are continuing on to this and in the supermarkets, the gluten-free
aisle is becoming bigger and bigger and actually I do remember having this conversation with
my mother about five years ago where I told her that she will notice that people are caught
on the fact that gluten is bad by the fact that the supermarket's aisles are going to
get larger and larger and this is really apparent in all of the local supermarkets. So the issue
is that a lot of people think that just by going gluten-free, it makes them more healthy.
So they just go to the aisle and they buy all the normal processed food but are not
containing gluten and they think that this is going to help them with their weight loss
efforts and make them more healthy. Now, sure they are not going to be having gluten which
is great, but these manufacturers are chalking in a lot of sugar to these foods and they
still are very, very processed. So we suggest to our clients to have naturally occurring
foods and as unprocessed food as possible and these foods are actually naturally not
going to have any gluten in anyway, but they are also a lot better for weight loss. So
don't think that just by going to gluten-free item, buying up all the same macaroons but
they don't contain gluten that you're going to be losing weight and be a lot healthier
because you're just going to be having a lot of sugar. So make sure that the foods you're
eating are unprocessed. They are naturally not going to have any gluten in and they are
going to help you with your weight loss efforts. So I really love to hear your thoughts -- Are
you gluten-intolerant? Do you try and steer clear off gluten? -- Let me know and I would
love to have a conversation with you in the box below. This is Mark from iloveweightloss.co.uk.
