In This Episode:
When it comes to carbs, not all are created equal. Did you know that wheat can be more harmful than sugar? In this podcast episode, I reveal why wheat is a hidden health threat and break down the top 3 reasons it’s bad for you. But don’t worry! There’s a better alternative—🥖 Sourdough! Not all bread is bad, and I’ll show you why sourdough can actually be good for you!
In his latest podcast episode, Dr. Jockers dives into the hidden dangers of a carb that’s far more harmful than you might expect. It’s not candy, soda, or even processed sugars—it’s wheat and wheat flour.
These common ingredients are secretly spiking your blood sugar, damaging your gut, and contributing to chronic inflammation. In this episode, Dr. Jockers uncovers why wheat should be avoided, how it impacts your body, and what you can do to protect your health.
The Surprising Dangers of Wheat
Did you know that consuming non-organic wheat can expose you to harmful chemicals like glyphosate? Dr. Jockers explains how this herbicide damages your gut microbiome and mitochondria, leading to intestinal permeability and inflammation.
He also discusses the unseen dangers of gluten, and how even organic wheat can trigger health issues when consumed in excess.
The Safer Alternative: Organic Sourdough Bread
While wheat is often a no-go, Dr. Jockers highlights one exception: organic sourdough bread. Thanks to its fermentation process, sourdough is lower in gluten and offers benefits like stabilizing blood sugar levels. If you’ve been craving bread, Dr. Jockers shares why sourdough could be a healthier option for most people—unless you have a gluten allergy.
