A member asked:
Does it make sense for me to go gluten free even if i am not intolerant to gluten? what health benefits will i derive from such a diet?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Gluten free diets are for people with celiac disease . If you do not have this disease then going on a gluten free diet is not necessary.
