Gluten free does not necessarily mean healthy by Oreke xx

We strive to eat a gluten free diet at home mainly because my youngest son has a nasty reaction to gluten, in fact he is severely allergic to a lot of things.

Foods containing gluten are typically the foods associated with weight gain and other dietary diseases . If you bake a cake using gluten free flour  but use the same amount of  sugar and fat  as you would a regular cake then that cake is still unhealthy. A gluten free diet will only be healthy if you cut out on refined sugars and bad fats.

It is great that there is more choice available to those that are on a gluten free diet but it is important to remember that gluten free does not always mean healthy. Until next time xx

PS I enjoyed the free’d bread xx

Style by Dunja

There’s a lot of mocassins out there for children and adults, designer and high street. They’ve made a real come back once again. But the best brand has to be ELK mocassins. Beautifuly handcrafted, they come in baby, toddler, child and adult sizes and sell on Etsy. Though right now, they are on sale at zulily and extremely affordable!

Families That Rock by Dunja

David Burtka, Neil Patrick Harris and their gorgeous twins Harper and Gideon are, like the Black family, another perfect example of a family who truly enjoy their time together. It’s beautiful that they were so lucky to both father the fraternal twins, and they do look incredibly grateful for it! You hardly ever see a picture of the couple without their kids, making it look effortless to blend your children into your life, as it should be!
