Obscure Shellfish: Barnacles, Geoducks And 10 More Of The Least-Known Varieties (PHOTOS)


Nice slideshow of perhaps unexpected shellfish. These all look yummy to me, and gluten-fre­e, too. I’m not sure that’s the response this article was expecting to get.

Living a gluten-free lifestyle

Many people nowadays live a gluten-free lifestyle. For some there was no choice, as a clear medical diagnosis of celiac or gluten intolerance meant they would need to strictly stay on a gluten-free diet to get healthy and stay healthy.

Some people come to the conclusion that their bodies cannot tolerate gluten through trial and error.

The fact is that others have given up gluten while exploring a low-carbohydrate or low-grain diet, perhaps hoping for health benefits but not really expecting to experience any of them. Many of these people, having made this choice for themselves, later find that minor health problems clear up unexpectedly and their quality of life improves.

While we have known for a long time that eating a very high carbohydrate diet can make it harder to lose weight, it is also true that it is becoming clear that the amount of wheat you eat correlates with your weight. That’s a scary thought.

What can you do? Start by eating consciously. Be aware of what you eat. Read labels. If you are not sure what path to take, get to know how much of what you are eating so you can make an informed choice.
