Gluten-Free Junk Foods
Muffin
Many people have started to avoid gluten… a protein found in wheat, spelt, rye and barley (and a few other grains).
Almost a third of the U.S. population currently wants to cut back on gluten or go gluten-free.
Food manufacturers have caught up on the trend and have started offering all sorts of gluten-free “health foods.”
The problem with these foods is that they’re usually not healthy at all.
Instead of a gluten grain, they’re made with other starches like potato starch, tapioca starch or some others. These starches are usually highly refined, void of nutrients and spike blood sugar fast, just like wheat.
But these products are often also loaded with sugar and other harmful or artificial chemicals.
This does NOT apply to foods that are naturally gluten free, like meats or vegetables. If a product says “gluten-free” on the package, then it’s probably bad for you.
