Gluten free?

Question

So I'm considering starting a gluten free lifestyle because I've heard of the major health benefits. I want to become more healthy and in tune with my body. And I'm not really upset about giving up most foods because well, I don't eat much to begin with.  Is gluten free a good diet for me? Tips? I'd love more info about it and how it'll help my body.

Answer

Certified nutritionist here. Don't do it unless you absolutely need to, and by need to I mean you'll die if you don't do it. Gluten itself has no nutritional benefits or anything like that but a lot of foods that have gluten are really good for you, and if you do decide to go gluten free you have to be very careful and aware of what you are eating to ensure you are still getting the proper nutrients you need, that you would probably already be getting anyway if you were on a regular gluten inclusive diet. A gluten free diet is an annoying health fad that really has no merit. Gluten will not harm you if you do not have celiac disease.

Answer

It's not really good for you unless you're allergic to gluten..
