Why go gluten free?
I don't know if anyone prefers a gluten-free diet (the majority of people on a GF diet would love to be able to eat gluten/wheat - ie. pizza, bread, seems like almost everything, etc). I prefer a gluten free diet because it doesn't hurt me and damage my intestines when I eat it. :)However! One major advantage that I have found is that, in being forced to read labels VERY closely for traces of gluten, you really get a sense of what that product is made of. I have stopped eating a lot of foods, even foods without gluten in them, because when reading the label the majority of the ingredients were chemicals I couldn't pronounce.Plus - to be completely safe, it requires cooking from scratch using fresh ingredients that you know are not contaminated, so the food does taste better (if you can cook!). I'd still prefer to be able to enjoy the same meals at the same restaurants and parties as my friends though.

Gluten is found mainly in foods but may also be found in everyday products such as medicines, vitamins, and lip balms. If a food is gluten free it means it doesn't contain gluten or any grains containing gluten. Source: I am a celiac.

Virtually, all labels of foods purchased must be checked as many items may not contain gluten but were manufactured on machines that had wheat, rye or barley. Only food items labeled gluten-free are truly gluten-free. While eating gluten-free may be a current trend in eating, for many Celiacs and gluten-intolerant people, it is a forever lifestyle.
