    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.
