One in ten Australians have non-coeliac wheat intolerance and one in 70 have coeliac disease. If you have a patient in either basket, how can you help them meet their total fibre and prebiotic needs when so many gluten-containing wholegrains are off the menu? Tune into this podcast with Advanced APD and gluten-free nutrition guru Dr Kim Faulkner-Hogg to learn the answer! Kim touches on the most common misconceptions about gluten free diets and provides practical tips for fibre-filled, prebiotic-powered gluten free meals and snacks.
