Why Gluten Free Isn’t Good Enough via Whole Nine.
This covers some good points, including why “Gluten-Free” (and “Fat-Free”, “Sugar-Free” or pretty much any “***-Free”) should be approached with caution. As we head in the Elizabeth Challenge, remember that trying to find “healthy substitutes” for your old unhealthy habits can be a dangerous thing. Real success comes once you realize that you need to focus on fueling your body with non-toxic, nutritionally dense foods instead of trying to replace “bad foods” with “not so bad” foods.

In other news, Nat G. is putting together a team for the Great Grain Relay and is looking for some female runners for the team.
The event is held on Sat Feb 27, 12-2pm, teams of 5. Each member will run 800 then pass the sponge to the next member to run 800m etc for a total of 2 hours. The team with the highest number of laps wins.
It’s $100 for a team of 5 and the proceeds (while it’s called the Great Grain Relay) actually go to Juvenile Diabetes. It’s held at the Field house at U of M.
If interested, speak directly with Nat G. or to me and I will pass along the message.
