Did Djokovic Conquer Wimbledon On Gluten-Free?

It's not for everyone but going gluten-free can have enormous physical and mental health benefits.

Even the Wall Street Journal is wondering whether Djokovich's recent Wimbledon win could be down to his new regime.

"How did Novak Djokovic conquer the tennis world? Maybe the answer is as simple as this: Since last year, he's swearing off pasta, pizza, beer, French bread, cornflakes, pretzels, empanadas, Mallomars and Twizzlers—anything with gluten."

Love Pure Cakes offers gluten-free cakes for one very clear reason: Gluten clogs up the system.

Even if you are not allergic (Celiac Disease) or intolerant to wheat, barley, rye and malts, by reducing your gluten intake, just like reducing salt and sugar in your diet, your health and well-being benefit.

You might not need to reduce your gluten intake for clinical reasons but you will certainly feel better about ravishing a scrumptiously healthy cake than one that clogs your arteries and gut.

Gluten-Free Celebrities

• Russell Crowe - of Gladiator-fame - has just lost 16lbs on a gluten-free diet, with some vigorous exercise added in for good measure
• Ulrikka Johnson - the former TV-am weather girl - is a Celiac
• Gwyneth Paltrow - Hollywood actress - follows a gluten free diet 
• Elisabeth Hasselback - star of 'The View - struggled with Celiac disease for years then brought out her gluten-free survival book - The G-Free Diet
• Judy Finnigan (Richard & Judy), Gillian Anderson (X-Files), Shirley Conran ... the list is endless

Whether you are on a diet, suffering from Celiac or just a tad health conscious, give your body a treat and think gluten-free next time you reach for an indulgent, soul-restoring cake.  

You know it makes sense.
