Don't let gluten bully you around! - gut health, gluten intolerance
November 04, 2024"What a 🫏! Doesn't he know that enzymes won't help with immune responses caused by gluten?"
Are you sure?
Hi, I’m Phil, your resident Silver Fern™ research nerd. While a gluten-free diet is essential for those with Celiac, you too have a possible lurking villain to fight: hidden gluten—especially when dining out.
Science backs up my recommendation: breaking down gluten proteins quickly can really help reduce the dreaded “glutening” experience.
So, let’s imagine this: you’re gluten intolerant (NCGS) and walk into a restaurant. Can the right enzymes (in the right doses), taken before or with your meal, help prevent gluten-related issues? Absolutely.
Now, picture someone with Celiac on vacation, excited for their gluten-free meal. Can those same enzymes (in the right doses, taken at the right time) help avoid accidental exposure? You bet.
Pro Tip: You can’t overdose on enzymes, but you can underdose. So, be generous.
‼️Many people who think they have gluten intolerance are actually sensitive to fructans or FODMAPs. If the right gluten enzymes don’t work for you, it might be time to check for fructan or FODMAP intolerance. Same dosing rules apply!
‼️ Both Celiac and food intolerances are tied to gut issues like dysbiosis and leaky gut. Supporting your gut could help reduce reactions to trigger foods. Need help? DM us with #Protocol for a gut health plan.
