5 Gluten Free Healthy Foodie Holidays in Aid of Coeliac Awareness Week
More than just a fad diet, eating gluten free is in fact vital to individuals suffering from a condition called coeliac disease. A lifelong autoimmune disease in which the small intestine reacts with hypersensitivity to gluten, this reaction leads to difficulty in digesting food. According to Coeliac.org.uk, this disease is affecting approximately 1 in 100 people with over 80% of this number remaining undiagnosed. With an increasing demand for destinations offering gluten free cuisine, Health and Fitness Travel, the leading experts in wellness holidays worldwide, share their top 5 gluten free healthy foodie holidays, opening the doors even wider to a world of gastronomic globetrotters.
