I really need to listen to this. I am still unsure about whether I have a gluten sensitivity, and what I should really be doing about it. I soak grains, sourdough, etc, But I am not sure if there are things I should avoid 100% and what they are. So frustrating.
@Jenn AKA The Leftover Queen, I’m a big believer in letting our bodies figure it out – tests are not always accurate. 🙂 We cut out gluten for at least a month or 2 and then if our bodies reacted when we ate a piece of bread or something then we knew! I don’t seem to have any outward reaction to it, but because of my family and the fact that I have celiac cousins and direct family members with auto immune diseases I’ve decided to stay away from it.
I feel the same way you do – our bodies tell us so much. But sometimes you get mixed messages. Seems like for now I do well with spelt, but not wheat. I have a feeling it will take some time before I figure it all out.
Great podcast. When I work with nutrition clients, I find that many of their health struggles can be greatly helped by entirely removing gluten. At the very least, there are no true health benefits to eating gluten, and many reasons to avoid it. Other foods like meats and vegetables are more nutrient dense anyway.
Thank you so much for the podcast. My husband and I have been trying to get pregnant for 8 years and the differing advice out there about gluten sensitivity’s effect on infertility can be confusing. I’ve been on and off the gfcf diet for the past 3 years but I found it so difficult to stay on without any concrete facts to rely on. I think this podcast may have been just what I needed to give the gluten-free diet a shot again, and perhaps convince my family that going gluten-free/dairy-free is a good thing.
@Jennifer Finn, I hope it was useful for you!
I would like to listen to this podcast. Is it still available? I can’t seem to get it to work.
@Evie, Yes – if you scroll just a bit down the page and click the link that says – {Gluten and Infertility with Dr. Thomas O’Bryan} it should pull up a new window with a player on it.
I am only half way through this message, but am finding it very interesting. I’ve had a problem with not ovulating (and lack of menstrual cycles) since high school. It’s been a year since my son was born, and my cycle still hasn’t returned. I am seriously thinking about phasing out wheat and lowering our consumption of grains. My husband and I would like to have more children someday!
