Gluten, Grain and Brain - Separating The Wheat from The Chaff


Listen Later

This episode is dedicated to the science behind the consumption of  gluten and brain health. There is a notion that gluten is bad for our health and especially for our brain, but does that stem from valid scientific sources, or is it just a food fashion statement? Dean and Ayesha go through a case report of celiac disease, describe what gluten is, the science behind it, and explore the evidence for and against gluten for different populations. 

Ayesha is leading a FREE 5-day, Better Brain Nutrition Challenge beginning Saturday, Feb 4th that will teach the basics of brain-healthy eating and give you specific meals you can make for yourself and your family. She will go live each day of the challenge to cook, alongside you, a brain-healthy breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks so that you can see how delicious and simple healthy nutrition can be.
