1009. The Hidden Benefits of Carbs No One Told You About w/ Gluten-Free Chef Phoebe Lapine


Listen Later

Carbs aren’t the enemy, you just need to know how to eat them!? Best-selling author and gluten-free chef Phoebe Lapine joins us to share her game-changing health journey. Diagnosed with Hashimoto’s and battling SIBO, Phoebe did what most of us would: she cut carbs completely. But it didn’t lead to better health… instead, it left her stuck in a cycle of restriction and confusion. Through a LOT of personal experimentation, Phoebe discovered that carbs can actually SUPPORT healing when you know how to choose the right ones. Spoiler alert: you don’t have to live in fear of bread anymore!

In this episode, Phoebe breaks down how slow carbs (not low carbs) can help improve energy, reduce inflammation, and bring more balance to your life. She also shares her top mindset shifts around food freedom, including how to eat without fear and find joy in cooking again. If you’ve ever felt trapped by diet culture or unsure of what’s truly good for you, this conversation will change how you think about your plate.

HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS:

  • Not all carbs are created equal. Slow carbs like sweet potatoes, legumes, and whole grains provide long-lasting energy and don’t spike blood sugar the way refined carbs do.
  • Cutting carbs completely can backfire. Completely eliminating carbs can cause fatigue, irritability, and hormonal imbalances, especially for those with thyroid conditions.
  • Stress around food is worse than the food itself. Obsessing over every bite can increase cortisol levels, which negatively impacts digestion and overall health.
