A few decades ago, most people didn’t know anything about gluten. Today there is an unmistakable trend of people going gluten-free in the hopes of solving all of their gut woes. Why is this?
In this mini-episode, Dr. Hyman explores this question with the world’s top gluten expert, Dr. Alessio Fasano. Dr. Fasano founded the Center for Celiac Research at the University of Maryland School of Medicine in 1996. In 2013, he moved the Center to Massachusetts General Hospital and renamed it the Center for Celiac Research and Treatment. He is chief of the Division of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition at MassGeneral Hospital for Children and professor of pediatrics at Harvard Medical School.

The majority of people are not having problems with gluten. The problem is the standard American diet. Too much processed food, too much fast food, too much junk food. Not enough whole plant foods. Eat pasta but eat it like Valter Longo advises. Eat bread but make it at home or get it from a reputable bakery. Don’t buy overly processed bread, it’s just junk food.
No One should eat gluten.. the undigested parts stick to the cilium in your small intestine and act as a barrier to absorption of nutrients.. so Everyone should avoid gluten, as it is preventing us from absorbing all the nutrients in our foods.. just because you do not have any obvious physical symptoms, does not mean you are not being affected.. nutrient deficiency btw, is the cause of most diseases, including cancer , diabetes, etc.. along with the Bad foods we also eat.. here is a good video (one of Many): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9WCzq-a1z7A&t=295s
It may in fact be the soy oil and other soy derivatives that are causing problems. That being said my body does not like gluten either. I prefer rice, sweet potato, pumpkin, peas, as my starches.
All foods based on any members of the grass family are toxic ! So are the members of the nightshade family too!

Gluten hmmmm
Eat sabah snake grass, that help a lot
italians pride them selves with there nativ grains they don’t use many persticides they grow it traditionaly with litle pesticides, they let it cook properly and don’t rush it, they harvest it when it is the perfect time to harvest it, a bad example is the way some farmers do it in my contry, to spead up the harvest they spray the weet with herbicide and they make it gry evanly even if not all the weet has matured …. italiens respect there grains, there grains are there food, they respect there food and they pride themselves with the way they treat there food.
capsator09 You are so right!
Be aware…Bayer ((German based) bought Monsanto and has influenced the EU to allow the use of glyphosate. Europeans need to stay much more vigilant now…the spread of its usage is insidious and can happen without the general community knowing it’s happening. Roundup’s days are numbered, so the needed to dump the name, but they are already working on something to replace it with…let’s pray it isn’t even worse! It took so many years for the destructive nature of Roundup to become apparent that North America is literally drenched in it. One grower told me it will be at least 20 years before some farmland can be certified organic!
What’s Pegan? =pesco+vegan?
Plant based, with meat as a condiment….quality meat (pasture raised), in small amounts.
Plant based / vegan combined with paleo (i.e. whole food and grain free)
Excellent
Is Gluten really evil?
@Ernestine Karmann
Gluten and other related proteins are EVIL!
So for me no grains, no potatoes and no fruits!
IT helps some people and some get sick
What about the gen(oh god, do not destroy the gen)
Pegen diet?
I can eat pasta etc in Italy but not here. They do not use the crap there that they use here. They use ancient wheat.
Very cool
