No Grain, No Pain: Why Removing Gluten i...

Dave Asprey
About this episode

Today, we're diving into a topic that's on everyone's mind, but often misunderstood: gluten. Joining the show on this gluten-decoding mission is none other than Dr. Peter Osborne, aka the Gluten-Free Warrior. Dr. Osborne is a powerhouse of knowledge in nutritional health, particularly regarding gluten sensitivity and food allergies. 

As the founder of Gluten Free Society, the author of the bestseller, No Grain No Pain, and the host of the Glutenology MasterClass Series, he's at the forefront of functional medicine, helping countless individuals combat chronic and autoimmune diseases. 

His insights are crucial for anyone navigating the complexities of a gluten-free life.

In this episode, we explain why gluten isn’t good for anyone—even if you don’t have symptoms or a diagnosed celiac problem. As a foundation, we lay out the differences between gluten sensitivity and celiac disease, covering the surprising connections between dairy, gluten allergies, and mold. 

Dr. Osborne also highlights why common gluten-free substitutes like corn, oats, and rice aren't the safe havens we wish we were. You’ll hear about the nefarious ways Big Food is keeping our country sick and how to start taking charge of your own health in simple, free ways.

Dr. Osborne shares his recommended diet, the rule of thirds, and how to effectively shift your eating habits. He recognizes the frustration and struggle many people face in finding effective professional help, and shares his tips for spearheading your own healing while collaborating with competent professionals.

This episode isn't just about gluten; it's a deep dive into understanding your body, your diet, and how to collaborate with your doctor to find the health solutions that work for you.
