RE: Gluten Free Peanut Butter Cookies Recipe
These look great, I work with someone who is gluten intolerant so this is useful, I was wondering if you could fill me in on why a gluten free diet is positive? I'm guessing it's similar to the benefits of paleo, which I'm on, thank you!
From my understanding people in general, but especially some people with diseases and disorders just can't digest the protein, kind of like certain people (many of them in fact) cannot digest milk especially later in life. I'm not hip to the ins and outs, I'm experimenting mostly, not with the intention to go completely gluten free or anything like that.
That definitely relates to what I've seen, seems like intolerance progresses among those groups in later life, which is interesting to me because these are the result of domesticating animals and farming, I think gluten free and paleo share those similarities and I'm fairly casual about it myself, it's better to be casual than all or nothing, being on a general diet with exceptions is better than not caring at all!
