Episode Details

Have you ever noticed bloating, fatigue, brain fog, joint pain, or anxiety after eating gluten — even though your lab tests came back "normal"?

In this episode of The GoodLife in Health and Wellness, Dr. Kate Duncan kicks off Autoimmune & Gut Health Awareness Month with a powerful deep dive into Gluten Sensitivity vs. Celiac Disease vs. Wheat Allergy — and explains how gluten can trigger immune reactions even when you don't have celiac disease.

You'll learn:

• The key differences between celiac disease, wheat allergy, and non-celiac gluten sensitivity
• Why standard lab testing often misses gluten-related inflammation
• How gluten can increase intestinal permeability ("leaky gut") and activate the immune system
• Common symptoms of gluten sensitivity that go far beyond digestion
• Why brain fog, fatigue, anxiety, joint pain, and hormonal shifts may start in the gut
• How to safely identify whether gluten is a trigger for your body
• Practical steps to calm inflammation and support gut healing

Dr. Duncan also shares how listening to your body's response to food can be one of the most empowering tools for reclaiming energy, mental clarity, and overall wellbeing — especially for women navigating perimenopause, hormone imbalance, or autoimmune symptoms.
