Sourdough, Inflammation & Hormones

Is your "healthy" sourdough habit secretly driving systemic inflammation? In this episode of Harmonize, we’re pulling back the curtain on the "Sourdough Halo." While long fermentation is often praised for making bread easier to digest, as a functional registered dietitian, I’m explaining why reduction is not elimination. We dive deep into the biochemical reality of modern wheat and why the sourdough process fails to fully degrade pro-inflammatory ATIs (Amylase-Trypsin Inhibitors) and residual gliadin fragments. Discover the hidden link between these wheat proteins and your hormones. We discuss how chronic gut irritation triggers zonulin release, leading to leaky gut and a "pregnenolone steal" that tanks your progesterone. Whether you are navigating PCOS, Hashimoto’s, menopause weight gain, or andropause, understanding the metabolic impact of your daily bread is the first step toward true healing. We also explore why ancient grains like Einkorn may be the only safe path forward for those looking to silence the inflammatory static and restore hormonal health. #Sourdough #inflammation #wheatandhormones #MenopauseInflammation #hashimotos #zonulinandsourdough Let;s connect and chat on Instagram! @gut.and.hormone.harmony
