What's Up With Gluten! | Michelle Bock and Dr. Josh Bock | Ep. 23

What’s the deal with gluten—and is it really a problem for you? In this episode, Dr. Kevin Wall brings clarity to the gluten confusion and welcomes special guests Michelle Bock, founder of Goodness Gracious Gluten Free, and Dr. Josh Bock of AFC Physical Medicine. Together, they unpack the difference between gluten intolerance, celiac disease, and sensitivity—and why even “healthy” people might feel better going gluten-free.

From childhood memories of grandma’s pastries to the science behind wheat modification and gut health, this conversation blends personal story, practical advice, and professional insight. Whether you’re newly diagnosed or just curious if gluten could be causing your symptoms, this episode offers direction, resources, and hope.
