111. Gluten-Free for Weight Loss and Health

I haven't mentioned it much on the podcast, but I've been gluten-free for over a decade now. The decision to cut it out wasn't prompted by anything related to weight loss, but rather some lab results showing that I have an autoimmune disorder that can flare up when I eat gluten. So that was that and I haven't looked back!

That being said, after I cut out gluten I did find that I dropped a pant size, but after doing some digging I realized that this sudden weight loss wasn't directly related to gluten. So this is what I'll be discussing on the first episode of the newly branded Vibrant Menopause Podcast!

We'll explore some of the misconceptions around going gluten-free for weight loss and better menopause health, discuss a bit of the science why gluten-free can actually be especially difficult in menopause, and in the case that any of you want or need to go gluten-free, I'll share some of my favorite menopause-friendly alternatives to gluten-containing products.

I hope you enjoy, and if you do, please consider leaving a rating or review on the streaming platform from which you're listening!
