Everyone’s Issue with Gwyneth and her ‘Elimination Diet’

A few article’s have surfaced recently about Gwyneth Paltrow and her latest extreme, fad diet; same old same old. But this time, the ‘Elimination Diet’ was forced onto her husband and children’s already tiny tummies. Her and her family have been getting a lot of coverage on this subject, from articles in almost every paper, new coverage, paneled discussions even! Well, to say the least people have been scrutinizing her, her health, and her parenting abilities for forcing her children participate in such a ridiculous diet. According to Gwyneth the family nixed coffee, eggs, sugar, shellfish, deepwater fish, potatoes, tomatoes, bell peppers, eggplants, corn, soy, dairy, wheat, and meat from their life.

In this video interview on Current.com, a panel made up of health experts and they explain that this is not necessarily the most insane diet they have seen from todays starlets.  Gwyny’s diet only sounds extreme, because of all the item she has… well… eliminated, as the title calls for. Although, in reality, she’s just being upfront. The panel explains that when women say they are cutting out ‘carbs’, they really have no idea what are technically carbs. These women only cut out breads, cereals, starches, etc. But the fact is, carbs are in fruits, veggies, yogurt, and whole grains! So these “NO CARBS” dieters are really just a bunch a fakes.
