Gluten-free?

[tobetinytina]

Does anyone know if this diet caters to people who have gluten intolerance?

It probably does. Most diets nowadays can be tweaked to accomodate those who have special dietary needs. I wold recommend going to the website and seeing if they have a specific gluten-free plan you can follow. If not, you can always contact one of their customer representatives and ask.

You probably could go gluten-free with this diet. That said, unless you have an actual allergy to gluten (like the intolerance you mentioned) I wouldn't recommend it. I'm only mentioning this so that anyone else who may be curious about a gluten-free south beach diet, but who doesn't have an allergy, does't think going gluten free is the best idea. Gluten isn't the enemy that everyone thinks it is (unless you have an allergy). In fact, you can end up gaining more weight by following a diet that is gluten-free.

Yup, you can totally follow this diet if you want to avoid gluten :)
