There's a common misunderstanding about what foods do & don't contain gluten and which foods are wheat-based. When doing a gluten or wheat elimination diet, knowing what's in your food is CRUCIAL for seeing if the food trigger is correct & getting to you a symptom-free state. Read those food labels, fam!
Not mentioned in the episode, but important:
Wheat extracts are also found in a number of food additives – for example:
Monosodium glutamate (MSG) – a widely used flavour enhancer
Hydrolyzed vegetable protein – this provides a meaty, broth-like texture to canned soups and similar products
Food starch
Vegetable gum – this is a thickening agentReach out to the Nuanced Naturopaths here! Send us your feedback, questions & episode requests.

The Nuanced Naturopaths Podcast is a friendly conversation between two friends, that’s us! Karinda and Julie. we’re passionate about finding the nuance in natural health. As degree-qualified naturopaths, we like to ask the questions that need to be asked - about all aspects of health, healing and well-being. We delight in questioning firmly held beliefs and finding the nuance in all subjects health-related and beyond. Sometimes it can get a little technical but hopefully we explain in a way that is accessible to anyone interested in natural health, whether you’re a practitioner or someone who wants to learn more and optimise your wellbeing. It’s a chat about poop, periods and everything in between - buckle up for a laugh, a cry and for some things you are yet to consider about your health!
