#106 - Gluten Free Ancestral Eating | Ancestral Kitchen

Combining gluten-free eating with ancestral eating need not be daunting. Today I talk with Rebecca Zipp, a beloved podcast guest and supporter. She's been gluten-free for the last 16 years – bringing her husband and her children along with her. In addition, for most of last year I ate gluten-free. Between the two of us we've a lot to talk about!

In this episode, we cover:

Why Rebecca went gluten-free and the impact it's had on her.
Examples of gluten-free breakfasts lunches and dinners.
The mass of gluten-free carbohydrate options, and how we use them
The basics of gluten-free breadmaking

...and Rebecca finishes the episode giving words of wisdom from her 16 years of gluten-free eating.

And remember, gluten doesn't necessarily have to be an all or nothing: making one of your meals a day gluten-free or several days a week gluten-free or going gluten-free for a short space of time can make a big difference to digestion. So even if you don't have to avoid gluten all the time the things we talk about in this episode will help lighten, change up and inspire your kitchen.
