Ep 14 Selena De Vries
Eating gluten free and being overweight. It’s very common, but we seldom speak about it. We try so hard to make sure we are eating completely gluten free, that having to concern ourselves about counting calories or sugar or fat, just seems too much to ask. Most of us try to replace our gluten laden foods with gluten free ones, but what is that actually doing to our diet. Listen and as I have a conversation with Registered Dietician Selena De Vries. You can find Selena online at the following links: Web: www.healthbean.ca Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/celiacdietitian/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/healthbean_nutrition/
