Why You Should Ditch Bread & Go Gluten-Free

Is going gluten-free just a trend, or is it a legitimate step toward better health? In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Alessio Fasano and Maggie Ward to explore the science behind gluten sensitivity and why modern bread could be at the root of many gut issues. We dive into the debate over gluten-free diets, discussing whether they’re necessary for everyone or only for those with celiac disease. We also examine how environmental factors like pesticides and hybridized wheat are disrupting the gut microbiome, leading to issues like leaky gut syndrome.

This is perpetuated by agricultural, food, and health care policies that don’t support health. We need to rethink disease and reimagine a food system and a health care system the protects health, unburdens the economy from the weight of obesity and chronic disease, protects the environment, helps reverse climate change, and creates a nation of healthy children and citizens.
