MIAMI, December 13, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
GRILLiT, Inc. ("GRILLiT" or the "Company") (OTC: GRLT) today
announced that over 90% of their menu options are gluten-free. The
Latin-Caribbean fusion fast-casual restaurant chain sees its
gluten-free menu options as part of its commitment to providing its
customers with healthy, fresh and tasty options.
Dr. Paul Aoun, GRILLiT's senior
medical advisor wrote, "Gluten is a protein found in grains such as
wheat, barley, or rye, or it may be 'hidden' in various food items.
It is sometimes used to thicken soups, sauces, and salad dressings.
Recent data suggests that gluten intolerance is more
prevalent than previously thought, and may cause digestive issues
or other ailments for individuals who may be gluten sensitive.
These symptoms appear to subside significantly when they cut back
on gluten-containing products from their diet. As a result,
more people are paying closer attention to the gluten content of
their meals."
"GRILLiT is a fast-casual, health-conscious restaurant concept,"
said CEO Ghazi Hajj. "We continue to monitor the gluten and MSG
content of products purchased from our vendors and distributors to
ensure that our menu meets the highest standards of quality, is MSG
free, and maintains well over 90% gluten-free menu items."
