The Hidden Carb That is Worse Than Sugar

Dr. Jockers
About this episode

In today's episode, Dr. Jockers reveals why wheat and wheat flour are a hidden carb that spikes your blood sugar more than you might think. Learn how these everyday foods, loaded with glyphosate, can disrupt your gut health and lead to inflammation.

 

You'll discover the dangers of consuming non-organic wheat, including its impact on your microbiome and mitochondria. This silent culprit can cause intestinal permeability, allowing harmful substances to seep into your bloodstream and wreak havoc on your health.

 

Dr. Jockers also shares why organic sourdough bread might be a safer option for those who want to enjoy bread without the negative effects. The fermentation process lowers gluten content and offers benefits like improved blood sugar regulation and reduced inflammation.
