Ep 54 - Gluten, Grains, and the Great Bread Debate: What You Need to Know
Manage episode 518895877 series 3486013
In this episode of Nutrition for Noobs, Michelle and Kevin dig deeper into the world of grains to uncover the truth about gluten: what it is, which grains contain it, and whether you really need to avoid it. From wheat, barley, and rye to pseudo-grains like quinoa and buckwheat, Michelle explains how gluten functions as a protein and why celiac disease, gluten intolerance, and general sensitivity are very different things.
They also share affordable, plant-forward meal ideas and debate the deliciousness of sourdough bread (spoiler: it might be friendlier for some gluten-sensitive folks!). Plus, a flurry of food puns and dad jokes make this episode equal parts fun and informative.
