Tuesday, May 25, 2010 at 9:22PM 
Alert! Urgent! Heck YEAH! Just a quick note before we get into the show - We are having a FREE ZenTri open water swimming clinic at Lake Travis in Austin TX. this weekend. We'll be doing open water swimming both mornings, that's May 29th and 30th, at Lake Travis, at Windy Point Park, at 7:30 AM.
Regular listeners of ZenTri know that swimming is a specialty of mine, so I'll be giving a bunch of tips on techniques and then we'll hit the waves. AND we'll have some surfboards and paddleboards with us for people who want to go reeaaally far out there. You know you want to hang out and enjoy the fun, so c'mon! Follow zentriathlon on twitter for more details as we get closer, and stay tuned!
Ok, on with the show. Let's dive into a great interview with the incredibly knowledgeable Christine Lynch, a.k.a HolisticGuru, about nutrition. We cover many topics and I bet you'll find at least some of them incredibly important to you.
Shownotes:
- The real deal on gluten.
- Caffeine and other food sensitivities.
- Are superfoods worth it?
- How to buy organic and whole foods cheaper than regular foods.

Just listening to this podcast and I'm puzzled by your surprise that regular pasta contained protein, because gluten IS protein.
Gluten being a protein isn't commonly known, commmon meaning everybody knows that. I'm a typical well-educated guy and didn't know. Proof that not everybody knows what we think they should and there will always be a need for re-educating people on things that some of us feel is very basic stuff.
I don't even remember that part of the conversation, so I STILL wouldn't have "known" if you hadn't brought it up again. I wikipedia'd "gluten", read up on it, and now I really know more than I ever wanted to about endosperms. :)
Podcast was awesome as normal, great to hear you talking about addiction and how it affects how we eat. Christine pointed out about how you eat something and then realize it doesn't really have any taste - i tend to realize this after i have already eaten something and then go back and say why do i eat this, this donut really isn't that good and this pasta really has no taste except what you put on it...anyways, i am just trying to say good job, i found inspiration from the discussion on food - thanks again
