Is Gluten that bad for your health? | The Science

Why giving up Wheat and gluten can improve your health ▲Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/WILearned ▲Twitter: https://twitter.com/jeverettlearned ▲Bitcoin: 1CuSEgDr5raV3XKoHL7W19QRoCkE3iHt1X Aside from the fact that a grain free diet is a low carb diet that should help you lose weight, what specific benefits are there from cutting wheat out of the diet? This is the question that the video covers. Books like wheat belly have enhanced the popularity of gluten free diets, but due to their very rapid increasing popularity, such diets have redeemed the status of "fad." Nutrition is always complicated, as the human body is - this topic is no different. I covered some of the reasons why cutting out gluten should evoke weight loss and improve health, especially gut health, but there are actually a couple more reasons to avoid gluten not mentioned here.

Hey Stephen, 1) Good question. The reason for this is probably that (as far as I know), there's no particular biomarker for Gluten sensitivity. Since there's no test that checks for a certain compound in the blood or tissue that doctors can hold up and say "Your XYZ level is over 50, this means you have gluten sensitivity..." Then, there's antibody tests and tissue biopsy tests that you can perform to check if someone has celiac disease, but those can come back clean with the person still having bad reactions to gluten. Leaky gut seems to have the same problem as well with no particular biomarker or accurate testing method for it. I suspect that serum Lipopolysaccharide (also known as "endotoxin") would be a good candidate as that would show that gram negative bacteria are 'leaking' out of the stomach into the bloodstream. This study says "serum endotoxin and AGP, as well as, gene expression of FABP2, FABP6, IL-8, IL-1β, TGF-β4, occludin, and MUC2 in mucosa may work as potential biomarkers for gut barrier health in chickens" If I was able, I would bold and italicize "in chickens" [ <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4672187/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4672187/</a> ]

2) Yea I see what you mean. Honestly I regret putting in the Djokovic as it made it look more that I was relying on anecdote to make my conclusions. Maybe the Zonulin explanation wasn't thorough enough and I could have talked about Lipopolysaccharide as a potential method for determining the "leakiness" of the gut. Perhaps another video covering it in detail (similar to my fructose biochem video) would be warranted. There's a lot more to the gluten science that I shied away from I'm always trying to strike a balance between "entertaining and engaging" and "informative and useful" - Unfortunately I don't always get it just right.
