Dietitian-Nutritionist Questions Gluten-Free Diet

Is a gluten free diet safe?

I've been reading a lot about nutrition lately and want to know if gluten free diet is safe? Many people follow it and I'm thinking about trying. Any advice?

It’s more about not eating GMO grains made by Monsanto then it is about gluten.
Why do want to be on a Gluten free diet? People who need to be on a gluten free diet do so because of a medical condition or allergies to certain foods. You should check with your medical professional before starting any specific diet. Unless there is a valid medical reason to be gluten free, you might want to reconsider. And, just because something is gluten free does not necessarily mean that it is healthy for you.
