How To Know If Gluten Is An Issue For You

This episode is brought to you by Rupa Health, Paleovalley, and
HigherDOSE.   Gluten is one ingredient we all love in bread or
our favorite pizza dough, but it’s often the cause of inflammation
and leaky gut, which is implicated in so many health conditions
such as IBS, skin problems, Hashimoto’s, high blood pressure, and
more. And it is not just people with celiac disease who are
affected.   In today’s episode, I talk with Maggie Ward, Dr.
Alessio Fasano, and Dr. George Papanicolaou about how gluten
affects the gut and how to know if it's a problem for you.  
Maggie Ward, MS, RD, LDN, is the Nutrition Director at The
UltraWellness Center. Maggie holds a master’s degree in Nutrition
from Bastyr University, which focuses on using whole foods for
holistic nutrition therapy. She completed her requirements to
become a registered dietitian at Westchester Medical Center in New
York. Prior to joining The UltraWellness Center team in 2008,
Maggie worked at the Brooklyn Hospital Center in New York.  
Advancing innovation in research, clinical care, and education,
Alessio Fasano, MD, has dedicated his life to improving the quality
of life for people with celiac disease and other gluten-related
disorders. He 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
Massachusetts General Hospital for Children and a professor of
pediatrics at Harvard Medical School.   Dr. George
Papanicolaou is a graduate of the Philadelphia College of
Osteopathic Medicine and is board certified in family medicine from
Abington Memorial Hospital. Upon graduation from his residency, he
joined the Indian Health Service. In 2000, he founded Cornerstone
