Laura Lummer, a two-time breast cancer survivor and certified life, health, and nutrition coach, dives into the intriguing connection between gluten, gut health, and mood in this episode of Better Than Before Breast Cancer. Have you ever felt uneasy after eating bread or pasta, even if you've never had issues with gluten before? Laura explains how gluten can affect your gut and brain, especially after breast cancer treatment.
She discusses the role of zonulin and leaky gut in inflammation and depression, and how hormone therapy and aromatase inhibitors can impact your gut's health.
