In this Ask Me Anything episode of The Art of Being Well, I address listener questions about trending wellness practices, controversial health products, and pressing health concerns. We explore the rice water hair trend and grounding sheets to assess their actual benefits. I also discuss the increasingly popular “living water” machines and how they stack up against other water purification systems. We talk about whether gluten sensitivity can be healed and what reintroducing gluten after gut healing might look like. Additionally, I answer questions about keto snacks and sugar alcohols, including their effects on ketosis and general health. Lastly, we tackle the rise in cancer among young adults and what factors might be contributing to this alarming trend. Join us for an eye-opening conversation on health, wellness trends, and food insights!

A few of my favorite things we cover in this episode: 

  • The rise of the rice water hair trend, from DIY methods to products like shampoo bars—does it actually help?
  • Honest take on the living water trend, now popular on TikTok. How does it compare to other brands on the market, and what’s Dr. Cole’s view on machines that adjust pH levels?
  • Grounding sheets: Do they really work? Dr. Cole’s perspective.
  • Can gluten sensitivity be healed? Is it possible to reintroduce gluten in small amounts or specific types after gut healing?
  • Keto snacks and sugar alcohols—are they compatible with ketosis and fasting, or could they pose hidden health risks?
  • Cancer in young, healthy people: Exploring the rise in cases and what it means for our approach to wellness.
