Gluten is overly vilified. I'll get off my high horse now about it, but I just want to say I'm not one of those guys who endorses a purely gluten free diet. I think in many cases the bigger culprits are glyphosate and fodmaps and often many of the fillers that we find in foods, especially for eating foods that are ultra processed, processed or packaged air fryers. I know people are getting away from frying in seed oils, but air fryer baskets often have nonstick coatings that can degrade and release plastic housing, plastic accessories like the silicone mats or the tubings that can also contribute to microplastics that you're getting from your precious air fryer. I love me some say carrot fries drenching a little olive oil and paprika and sea salt cooked up in that air fryer. But you got to be careful and I will give you solutions here momentarily. I'm not just going to spend this entire podcast scaring you.
