1329. How to Eat Gluten-Free While Still Enjoying Healthy Carbs w/ Chef Phoebe Lapine

Author: Heal Squad August 13, 2026 Duration: 28:14
Hey, Heal Squad! After hearing Jennifer Esposito's powerful celiac journey, we wanted to leave those who have gone gluten-free with a hopeful take on rethinking your relationship with carbs. That's why we're throwing it back to our conversation with bestselling author and gluten-free chef Phoebe Lapine. After being diagnosed with Hashimoto's and struggling with SIBO, Phoebe thought eliminating carbs altogether was the healthiest path forward. But through years of trial, error, and healing, she discovered something surprising: if you don't have celiac disease or a medical need to avoid gluten completely, healthy carbohydrates can absolutely have a place on your plate. In this episode, Phoebe explains why the goal isn't to fear bread or eliminate carbs, but to understand which carbohydrates best support your body. She shares how "slow carbs" can help stabilize energy, support gut health, and reduce the all-or-nothing mindset that diet culture has created around food. If you've ever wondered whether you really need to avoid gluten forever, or you're looking for a more balanced approach to healthy eating, this conversation is full of practical, empowering takeaways. Hope you enjoy it!
