A Gluten Free Podcast 
Episode 165

If you have coeliac disease, you’ve likely experienced gut issues, bloating, fatigue, or discomfort even when following a strict gluten-free diet. But have you ever wondered—is gluten always to blame?

Many people with coeliac disease assume every symptom they experience is due to gluten exposure. However, other factors such as IBS, food intolerances, FODMAPs, stress, and gut imbalances can cause similar reactions. After my recent interview with Dr. Kim Faulkner Hogg, a leading coeliac disease dietitian, I began reflecting on my own experiences with gut health, including my diagnosis with IBS and my journey navigating the Low FODMAP diet.

In today’s episode of Gluten Free Thoughts, I’ll dive into why gluten might not always be the culprit, share my personal story of living with both coeliac disease and IBS, and discuss how lifestyle factors like stress, mindfulness, and diet changes have transformed my gut health.

If you’re struggling with persistent gut symptoms, unexplained bloating, or ongoing health issues even after going gluten-free, this episode will help you explore other potential causes and solutions.

 
What I’ll cover:
* Why it's important to slow down and be in touch with your own physical and mental health within this current fast-paced world
* How meditation and yoga have been so positive in my own life
* Recording and releasing sound bath with Annie & Justin last fortnight on the podcast
* Reflecting on Kim Faulkner Hogg's episode, specifically in relation to other food intolerances and triggers
* Thinking I was getting consistently glutened after my coeliac disease diagnosis
* My own IBS and Low FODMAP story
* Remembering gluten isn't always the source of symptoms
* Areas I've been focussing on to improve my own physical and mental health recently
* Teaser of next week's episode with Celiac Cruise founder Maureen Basye
