01:11 The Link between Grain Consumption and Pain: Grain consumption induces an inflammatory state that Dr. Osborn calls “grainflamation”. For those of us with gluten sensitivity, we have an inflammatory response as our body rejects grains. People with allergies to mold may also react. Grains are rich in mold and mycotoxins; toxins created by mold which forms during the bulk storage of grains. Another trigger for inflammation from grains may be the pesticides which are still in/on the grain. One of the chemicals, atrazine, works like an estrogen. In amphibians, the males become females. Glyphosate is a severe toxin on the gut, with a number of effects that contribute to the inflammatory cascade. There is more to grainflammation than gluten.
05:16 Gluten is in More Than Just Wheat: The protein called alpha gliadin, found in wheat, barley and rye, was discovered in 1952 and studied on 10 people, where it was found to be the trigger for celiac disease. Since then, we have discovered over a thousand forms of gluten. Corn and rice, in addition to other grains, have their own family of gluten and you may be reacting to them. Grains are not gluten free. Gluten free grain food products are one of the most concentrated sources of mycotoxins in the American diet.
14:05 Hidden Sources of Gluten: Sometimes meat is injected with something that mimics gluten called microbial transglutaminase. Same is done with cheese and dairy. This may explain why many with gluten sensitivity, are also sensitive to dairy. Sometimes there is gluten contamination during processing or cooking.
20:51 Stripping Away Protective Gut Barriers: In addition, antibiotics have been in use for the past 50 years and its use is on the rise. There are 5 barriers that protect our gut from developing a leak and an autoimmune process. A leak of the gut allows inflammation to travel to the rest of our body. One of those barriers is the microbiome, the bacteria in our gut. Antibiotics and certain classes of blood pressure medication induce leaky gut. Aspirin, Ibuprofen and other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs strip away one of the other gut barriers, the mucosa that lines the G.I. tract. Other drugs affect gut motility.
38:41 Grain-Besity Cycle: Grain can induce hormonal changes. Your body’s response to inflammation is to create more cortisol. With chronic long term inflammation, it can lead to adrenal burnout. Adrenal failure or burnout leads to the inability to adapt or cope with inflammation and it gets out of control. Our adrenals are our natural inflammatory control system. Excessive insulin production is a side effect of this, causing amplified fat storage. We end up marbleizing our muscle tissue, which creates a fatty muscle, which slows our metabolism. Muscle sets the metabolic rate. Excess weight increases pressure on joints, thus further limiting physical activity and increasing pain.
