Gluten free diets

jamesbere · 22-02-2014 02:27AM #1

A person who truly needs to eat Gluten Free has a very serious medical condition known as Celiac Disease but why are people who don't have this disease on these diets, why are people depriving themselves of some essential nutrients to go on a diet that a magazine told them to go on. I know a couple of people that are on gluten free diets and they dont need to be on them.

Maybe because there may be some health benefits from going gluten-free? (I don't know, btw).

They could have a basic intolerance of Gluten.

It's classic Apple syndrome. Gluten free crap is expensive. People equate expense as being good for you. People are stupid. How do you even know they're on this diet? Did they tell you? Remind you of anything?

Because that **** gives me indigestion so I need to go easy on it.

There taking out essential b vitamins, whole food breads and cereals are loaded with B vitamins. Eating fiber rich foods are important, especially in order to get and maintain normal intestinal and bowel movement

My bowel movements and intestinal workings are much better when I avoid Gluten.

They dont even have that, If they were intolerant it would make sense but they're not, thats what baffles me.

Yes, there's no such thing as coeliac disease, intestinal issues or anything else that I personally haven't experienced.
People who do things I don't do are such a pack of ****ing retards!

What foods have gluten in it as a matter of interest?

Many people say they have an intolerance but don't. Like a few years ago it was "cool" to have bipolar disorder, before that it was aspergers and various types of autism. Before that, it was lactose. List goes on. There are fad illnesses, maybe part of a "Look at me" syndrome.

Because Irish clubs are shite?

Yeh it's all fake. None of it is genuine. People really want to have bipolar disorder for the craic.

Is it because they are lactose intolerant?
