now you probably heard this a million

times we’re whole grains are better than

refined grains and whole grains are

healthy grains right

well most whole grains have gluten in

them now gluten is a protein in certain

grains especially wheat now when you

think of gluten you may think of

condition called celiac which is an

autoimmune condition where your body is

developing antibodies against your own

small intestine and so you have this

constant inflammatory condition in your

small intestine and the little cilia

that help you absorb in the small

intestine are damaged

now people associate gluten with

digestive problems and there’s another

condition related to gluten that’s

destroying your brain way more than your

digestive system it’s called gluten

ataxia ataxia is a lack of voluntary

coordination of muscle movement so your

gait is off you don’t have good balance

you’re having a problem with speech your

eyes your posture because there’s damage

to a part of the brain the back part

called the cerebellum that controls this

so gluten ataxia is an autoimmune

disease triggered by gluten destroying

the cerebellum and only 10% the time do

you have gastrointestinal symptoms now

when they investigate further and do

certain deeper tests they do find 40% of

these cases have GI damage but only 10%

of them have this symptoms which is

interesting because you would think that

if it affected your brain it would

affect your gut but in this case it’s

affecting your brain obviously more than

the digestive system and out of all the

categories of ataxia with an unknown

cause 40% of them aren’t this right here

now a big problem is that once you get

the damage it’s very difficult to

reverse damage to your cerebellum and

you just don’t end up one day with

ataxia it starts slowly and it

progresses so you may notice that your

focus isn’t quite right you’re

developing attention and concentration

problems you get brain fog you start

getting anxiety depression you have a

cognitive decline where you’re not

remembering things anymore these could

be the early signs of a problem with the

cerebellum now if you’ve been following

my channel you’re not consuming grains

so you’re completely safe but for those

of you that are new you might want to

consider not consuming grains for this

reason and the other big point I want to

bring up regarding gluten free is that

when you take gluten out of the grains

you still have grains and those grains

turn the sugar very very fast they’re

gonna spike your insulin they’re gonna

create a lot of other problems with

elevated blood sugar belly fat and the

list goes on
