What is this gluten-free diet that everyone is talking about? It isn't the latest fad diet or a weight-loss secret. Gluten is a protein found in some grains, such as wheat, barley and rye.

Hail To The Pumpkinnew
During the holidays, treat your sweet tooth with pumpkin gingerbread and pumpkin cheesecake. Pumpkin is low in calories, and high in potassium, beta carotene, iron, fiber, and vitamins C and E.
