TRENDY gluten-free diets loved by Gwyneth Paltrow and Russell Crowe may increase the risk of heart disease, a study suggests.

Researchers warned people with no medical need to avoid gluten not to adopt the potentially harmful fad.

They found those who avoided gluten typically had a lower intake of whole grains, which are known to be beneficial to cardiovascular health.

People who ate the least gluten were 15 per cent more likely to suffer from coronary heart disease than those who ate the most.

Gluten is a protein found in some grains, such as wheat, rye and barley.
