Low gluten diet for weight loss

Low gluten diet for weight loss

A new study has highlighted a singular fact, namely that even people who are not celiac or affected by gluten sensitivity, would have an advantage in following a low gluten diet.

In fact, a low gluten diet would reduce intestinal swelling and inflammation and lead to weight loss.

Researchers from the University of Copenhagen subjected a heterogeneous sample of people to a low gluten diet, ensuring that the daily gluten rate did not exceed 2 grams.

Compared to when they ate 18 grams per day and when they ate 12 grams, the researchers, in collaboration with the  Novo Nordisk Foundation Center for Basic Metabolic Research , found that the sample lost weight during the eight weeks of low gluten.

This without affecting their daily calorie intake. A modest weight loss, especially in the abdominal area.
However, the researchers also found that in the first few weeks a diet low in gluten was equivalent to a diet even lower in fiber. We can replicate their experiment and go on a low gluten diet to lose weight this way.
