Today I want to share with you how to go gluten free and the right kinds of cooking flours to consume. Most people today use white or wheat flour and don’t know about the multiple side effects they cause.
There are all-natural, great-tasting flours that you can substitute with. Bob’s Red Mill Company and Sprouted Flour Company are both great alternatives you can use. Coconut flour is high in fiber, healthy fats, helps you lose weight, boosts your metabolism, and is another great replacement flour to consume. A general, gluten-free, Bob’s Red Mill flour is a great substitute because it’s made with chickpea from garbanzo bean flour, sorghum flour, and potato starch. This flour has good texture and one cup of this flour is equal to one cup of regular white flour. Gluten-free, sprouted yellow corn flower is another great flour to use with cooking because the flour is soaked, which kills off phytic acid, allowing you to absorb vitamins and minerals more easily. This flour is also good for cooking cornbread. Organic spelt flour is a flour I recommend because it is sprouted and easy to cook with. Additionally, gluten-free sprouted oat flour is great for chocolate chip raisin oatmeal cookies, which taste amazing, but it’s also easy to digest. Brown rice flour from Bob’s Red Mill Company is a healthy substitute which is non-allergenic for a lot of people and can be digested well. Lastly, finely ground almond meal flour is a great flour to use when cooking because almonds are loaded with fiber, L-arginine, healthy fats, and can be used for a lot of different kinds of recipes. These seven natural, gluten-free substitute flours are great replacements and you won’t deal with the side effects of white and wheat flours! You can find these flours at most grocery stores or on Amazon. For more on how to enjoy a gluten-sensitive diet, check out this article: draxe.com/gluten-sensitivity-d...

Corn was the first to became GMO, most people today don't use corn, because it's hard to find it organic.
I have been using a few options mentioned by Dr Axe. My husband and boys actually enjoy.
Dr. Axe, the Sprouted flour company has sprouted brown rice flour. Also almond flour helps with browning of gluten free baked goods.
I really enjoyed this video. I mainly use gluten free oat flour because rice flour can be a little grainy, but I like the idea of using coconut flour. Thank you for the video.
Great to hear Gluten Free Baking With Lily!
Thank you, it is a great help to me . Breaking different food items is great especially to help lose weight and everything else. Love your videos
Afternoon Kerry lynne, we are all so different, it's a question of finding what is right for us.
I do appreciate so much how your videos have helped me on my weight lose challenge, thank you so very much for sharing your knowledge, recipes, ideas etc, God bless you always!
And Glod bless you as well Angel Alicon!
Thank for the coconut flour recipes!
Almond flour is awesome and tastes like heaven, but soooo costly! He obviously can afford it. I’ve had Celiac Disease and have been GF for 23 yrs now. I use a lot of brown rice and oatmeal flour (oat flour). I don’t know who this guy is, I assume he’s no MD, but he was right about the nutritional info. I’m an RN with a Master’s in public health and always use nutritional diets for my own patients. Will see what else he has. Thx.
me gusto mucho su video aprendi mucho gracias.
because I bough the ones from Walmart that has the whole grain oate thing in them,I think you know which one I'm talking about
I love using spelt flour in baking. It has less gluten than wheat and is apparently easier to digest. I wouldn’t use rice flour because of the big issue of Arsenic in rice (and brown rice is worse than white because the husk retains the arsenic). almond flour is amazing in baking. I’ll be trying to use buckwheat, coconut, millet and amaranth (the latter two Grains I’ll grind myself).
Great tip! Thanks for sharing.
What would you recommend to substitute for a pie crust? The crust will still contain the other stuff... lard, vanilla, some sugar, and buttermilk.
Have you had any experience with Cassava flour for gluten free baking/cooking?
Dr. Axe,
I have just found how to make my own flour with wheat grains.
QUESTION:
Would this be better than the supermarket flour?
Great video .The only one i havent used is sprouted oat flour but I know you get more stuff in the US than us in Canada
Thanks Claudian Fevrier!
How can you make substitute of rice flour and wheat flour. Can you make a video on it and show us how.
I'm confused on the reaction with baking powder and baking soda. Do these flours actually rise?? Thank you so much
I'm wondering if the brown rice, or even white rice flours turn to sugar or are considered high on the glycemic index? Any information on this? If the brown rice were to be combined with say quinoa or chickpea flour, or coconut flour, or maybe a blend of several, would this reduce the glycemic load? If you could do a video about flour blends that would be so helpful. Thanks! 👋
Brown rice has arsenic in it naturally! I’m no longer using.
sprouted flour is very expensive can you get whole oats soak them till sprouted put bicarb in it then blend it and make your cookies?
@Dr Axe: Thank you for this video, can you please make a video about flours that does NOT spike your triglycerides? Please!!!!
Is the almond flour you recommended from soaked, dried, and then made into flour almonds?
I recently made flourless muffins, the base of the muffin was banana, peanut butter, and garbanzos beans. Tasted great too.
Thank you so much, Dr Josh, for the info on gluten free flour! I am so confused with too many videos from too many health experts about what not to eat and what to eat if one wants to go gluten free. You mentioned that we can replace wheat and white flour with Sprouted and Spelt flour and rice flour apart from the others but I am hearing also that Spelt and rice should not be in a gluten free diet. Please confirm. Appreciate your help!
sorry if you've already got a video on this, but what are good alternatives to white rice? besides the germinated brown rice you mentioned in another video?
Thank you Dr very helpful
Does anyone know about dark rye flour and pumpernickel bread? If it's gluten free ? I eat this Russian bread made from those ingredients without wheat but wonder if rye is any better
hey doctor axe,can you still make organic cereal strawberry bars with these to be healthier?
Do you have a corn tortilla recipe using the sprouted corn flour you showed?
I've been reading a lot about the problem of phytic acid in nuts like almonds. How does using almond flour square up with this?
Great information !!! Thank you so much
for chickpea flour , is its okay to consume it when you are avoiding all grains and beans in healing the leaky gut ?
yes they may be gluten free but what about the cost? bob's for one is not cheap im on a fixed income and at the price of a gluten free loaf a bread (which really isn't a full loaf was like 5.50 too much for me this is very frustrating
What's the calorie difference? And, which ones taste the most like white flour?
this is a great bobs red mill ad.....
maybe or maybe not, but overall I find all of his nutrition advice extremely helpful.
I'm surprised at the sprouted corn flour as I thought all corn in the US was GMO!
Carol Brown Why would you think that? There a countless organic corn products on the market today, and for any product to be certified organic it has to be non-GMO by necessity as GMOs are not allowable in the National Organic Program. And even if you're not looking specifically for organic corn, you can look for the "Non-GMO Project Verified" label and still find plenty of non-GMO corn products.
Hi doctor, does gluten free flour have less carb than regular all purpose flours or more carb
I know some of the corn bread on the local grocery stores may contain a combination of ingredients that may not be entirely gluten-free but I have a corn starch and tapioca starch flour, is that a good flour for vegans or does it have to say gluten free on the labels?
Just subscribed. I love your videos
How can I gain weight with a celiac problem? What flour would help?
Is gluten free diet and grain free diet are the same?
Can you make video about grain free diet what to eat and what to drop.
Thank you
No, rice is gluten free but is a grain
as a coeliac i can confirm spelt is definitely not gluten free and oats contain avenin which 1 in 5 of those diagnosed with coeliac disease will react to. I'm not to fussed about the oat flour as some can handle it but you should not be telling people to use spelt flour as gluten free flour
Hey! What flour do you use ? I have been looking for a gluten free flour so I was wondering if you could share the recipe
Thanks I was just diagnosed with coeliac and was looking for alternatives
which gluten free flour best for cheese souffle
Spelt is not gluten-free but it is alkaline which is a good thing.
Brown rice has been sprayed double with Monsanto what the heck
What are you saying ?
What if you mix them all , for your flour?
I read that any kind of flour substitute alone is not sufficient as equal flour substitute - it is supposed to be mixed with another flour substitute in order to give the mix the characteristics of white flour. Is it true or it is enough to use one flour? e.g. just coconut flour will be good for tortillas, cakes and also for any kind of other baking that the white flour is used? It will react to yeast in the same way the white flour does?
True you have to mix them
Great,
This great for me since I'm going to start going gluten free..
You're body will reap the benefits!
Why though? Glutten is neither bad or good for you.... You should only avoid it if you have a Glutten Allergi wich most people dont have...
Angelo Chiappe Gluten is just bad for everyone along with other things found in grains. Everyone should avoid gluten, but not just gluten, grains in general.
Angelo Chiappe a lot of people react to gluten without knowing it.. they just get sore joins, digestive problems and all sorts of illnesses, but don't know why...it takes a test to find out, but it's worth it! :-)
I totally disagree with the spelt recommendation.
I have inflammation and quite severe arthritis. ANY WHEAT, SPELT IS TERRIBLE FOR ME,
airyfairycelt I was afraid f spelt too.. have you tried wholemeal spelt which has been Finley seived? The white spelt flour is enriched and irritated my stomache too
Same here, but I coarse god every day for giving me this horrible illness.
KOMBUCHA is good for arthritis. Check this out.
airyfairycelt Try listening to Dr. Gundry lectins and gluten. Dr. Sebi said splet was gluten free he was against this chemical.
Guys try raw plant base diet for healing
we use spelt flower
Great information!!
Hi Dr, I really like all your videos, it so much informative. Here in India we consume more wheat flour by making chapati (like flat bread) on a pan. Is it healthy? . I personally bring wheat from grocery store and then grinding in a flour mill.
until it is not GmI but who can verify it ,then find an alternative, just your country we also have millet ,or switch to oat flour for taste I'm African since I learn from these DR I'M switching most of my country recipes until it safe and healthy,but I love in NEW YORK there is soo much chemical in food products so different reaction from fresh untempered original food products.
The wheat in the US is a lot more and differently processed in the US than in India . And hence wheat is such s big issue in the US. In India wheat tortillas have been a staple diet for centuries and nothing ever happened to anyone by eating that .
Anamayee Warty Wagh yes you are right .but however or where someone's is not reacting to it . I know in India just like in Africa most of our grown crops are organic ,but there are as well products and other ideas coming in the c pooiuntry to influence us ,so we must be aware and adjust ourselves.There are solution .I barely touch rice now I'm on millet quinoa, fonio,moringa .I make sourdough breads and I'm almost vegan, yet I still consume liver I need more B vitamins ,but I find out even the rest of my family who never step out of AFRICA ,HAVE REACTIONS TO WHEAT AND SUGAR .I CUT SUGAR COMPLETY.Im learning to reclaim BACK my heatht.Namaste.i speak a little urdu.allafiz
Im gluten sensitive and normaly dont tolerate wheat but your Atta I tolerate very well but not Maida. I lived in India for many years and loooved chapaties.

Thank you! So true
You're welcome carrie dodson!
So the gulten free flour can hold together if u a make dumping
Some of them aren´t really gluten free, for example rice flour - it is just lower in gluten then wheat etc., so it can cause problem to people with celiatic disease or gluten allergy.
Sourdough bread is fairly inexpensive (3 dollars)when compared to a 9 dollar loaf of gluten free bread at a nutrition store....
many are very high in carbs
Dr Axe can eat injera/ teft if I'm on a keto diet? I have fatty liver and IBS
Teff is high in carbs like other grains so no
You did not mention that corn flour HAS to be organic. I know most of our corn in US is GMOed!,

Can blood group o use coconut flour,if not what's the best?
Hey Nicola! That's a great question. You can learn more about the blood type diet here: draxe.com/blood-type-diet/?.
Are they organic?
How about oat flour, gluten free?
Coconut flour is nice if you don’t squeeze the juice out, if you do it taste like sawdust.
🤣🤣
You need to do some videos on Coconut and gluten free recipes..
Lori Favela if you check out my channel, I have several gluten free videos and coconut videos!
Dr. Josh Axe
Where do you get your coconut flour from because it is so expensive to buy
Kevin Leong buy Anthony's on Amazon is 15 bucks for 4lbs i think
can arrowroot starch be used in place of potato starch?
Michael Bremseth arrowroot is great for puddings and making recipes that calls for a chewy texture. However, from personal experience it's not great for getting that crunchiness that some recipes call for.
Anybody suggest any brands of already made bread that's healthy?
Carlos Martinez. Ezekiel and Rudis
How about banana flour, coconut flour, almond flour, ... I just heard of cricket flour , but that's just disgusting to even think of...
My husband has leaky guts problem We been watching most of your videos & we focused on those foods that helps to heel leaky guts but recently when we had food reaction test done most of them were allergic to him including coconut. So could anyone help me please..…
Sasina ale Pun optimize your husband's gut flora with fermented food or probiotics. People have experienced improvement from balancing and optimizing their gut bacteria. This is because it improves the immune system, digestive system and the intestinal which then makes it easier for people with food allergies to eat. Research more on fermented and rich probiotic food/supplements if you want to know more.
Theresa Vu tq so much for your help, yes he is taking probiotics.
Sasina ale Pun no problem. Wish the best for you and your husband
do fermented vegetables, and sourdough bread,add also spirulina and chlorella,nutritional yeast in his diet ,all the best.
fruit he can handle. sweet juicy fruits
everytime i make gluten free bread or eat gluten free products i feel like im eating a gritty brick .also alot of the gluten free products i look at they all have so many chemicals in them some i cant even pronounce im starting to wonder weather gluten free really is healthier than food with gluten in because at the the food with gluten dosnt have so many additives in it .
+Ernest Hemingway it's sorghum, not sour gum! and this is an old world grass which is akin to sugar cane. Hope this helps
Unfortunately, if you have Celiac’s, you don’t have a choice
You have to read labels for gf products just as you should read all labels. Do not assume gluten free means healthy for you. My wife and her family all have Celiac's abd have known for over 10 years. I buy the groceries so i know what it's like to hunt down the good stuff. Most gf bread needs a little toasting to bring out the better texture and flavor.
what about tapioca flour?
and RAGI

Is rice flour consider gluten free?
Rice is not gluten. Remember “BROW” barley, rye, oat, wheat are gluten
is he a real doctor or a TH-cam doc?
From his website: "Dr. Josh Axe, DNM, DC, CNS, is a certified doctor of natural medicine, doctor of chiropractic and clinical nutritionist" - so to answer your question, he's NOT a medical doctor.
Chiroprator’s ARE real doctors. If he was wearing a white coat would it make you feel better? LOL
Mekratrig, To say Dr. Axe is not a doctor of modern Western medicine is true, but fairness requires more to be said in this context.
Many are unaware that most practitioners trained in Western medicine receive less than 3 weeks’ instruction on human nutrition and its effects during 8 years of schooling. For instance, they learn symptoms of, say, migraine headaches, or arthritis, or fatigue, but they are not taught how to treat these problems in ways that use prescribed dietary changes instead of pharmaceuticals. With diet changes, these conditions can be improved substantially or eliminated, but with pharmaceuticals, they persist (by design).
For thousands of years, medical practitioners have been trained in the pain relieving and curative properties of preparations from minerals, plants, insects, and animal organs. Today’s pharmaceuticals prescribed by “medical” doctors come from the same age-old ingredients and understandings, but with a modern twist: the basic ingredients are now rarely mixed to effect permanent or inexpensive relief.
To say Dr. Axe isn’t a medical doctor is not exactly true. His practice of medicine stays closer to nature and the mortar and pestle than to the laboratory and polluting pharmaceutical manufacturing plants.
THANK GOD he's not just a medical /typical doctor.
@@brandonfredenburg8343 does he have a medical licence?
I can get sprouted Ezekiel flour at my health food store but it has wheat in it. so are you saying if the wheat is sprouted it is ok
Yes, since the pytic acid is removed, the nutrients are available to absorb.
Unless you have celiac disease then it's not Okay either way....
