About this listen

  • Research from The Lancet found that only about 16% to 30% of self-identified gluten-sensitive individuals experience symptoms triggered by gluten alone
  • Many people who believe they're gluten sensitive are actually reacting to fermentable carbohydrates (FODMAPs) or gut-brain hypersensitivity, not gluten itself
  • Natural FODMAPs from whole foods like fruit and grass fed dairy help feed beneficial gut bacteria such as Akkermansia muciniphila, which strengthens your gut lining and supports immunity
  • Eliminating seed oils rich in linoleic acid and eating about 250 grams of healthy carbohydrates daily restores mitochondrial energy, improves digestion, and rebuilds a resilient gut
  • Once your gut is healed, gradually reintroducing whole grains helps expand your diet and restore comfort, turning food from a source of fear into a foundation for long-term health
