A new green just in time for Saint Patrick’s Day: Sweet Garleek!

Have you spotted this new green in your market or produce stand yet? Garleek is a vegetable that's a cross between garlic and leeks, and the low-FODMAP greens add a wonderful flavor to just about everything you might put garlic or onion in! Garleek has the sweetness of leeks and the savory notes of garlic. As with other garlic/onion family vegetables, it’s recommended only to eat the green part, leaving the FODMAP-containing white part out. You can eat the greens raw in salads and as garnish, grilled, roasted, sautéed, or baked into your favorite savory dishes.

Developed by Allium breeder Hans Bongers, Sweet Garleek has a buttery texture, concentrated flavor, grows from spring to fall, and is harvested at a diameter of about ½-inch. When you find it in the store, it will look like oversized green onions or undersized leeks!

Preparation 

• You can use sweet garleek in vinaigrettes, sautéed, grilled, or roasted

• To sauté, cut off the white base and slice the green stalks in half lengthwise

• Rinse well under cold water

• Chop the greens into 1/8-inch pieces

• Heat a large sauté pan over medium-high heat

• Add olive oil and your sliced Garleek greens

• Sauté until tender

Storage 

• Roll the stalks in a dry paper towel

• Put the stalks in a plastic bag or storage container

• Store in the vegetable drawer of the refrigerator

• Wash thoroughly before use

  Watch for new recipes using delicious Garleek!

5 Minutes prep • Low FODMAP • Gluten-Free • Keto friendly • Serves 1

Sometimes looking at food in a different way is a great way to get new ideas for how you can eat well, eat a broad variety, and keep your gut happy. These Turkey Wraps are a good example. I used sliced deli meat for my wrap and I added lactose-free cream cheese to give it some stability and flavor. Then I piled on microgreens, walnuts, and avocado. Truthfully, you could pile in anything you like—as long as it’s low FODMAP! These make a great quick lunch and are filled with excellent variety for your gut biome.

Now on YouTube: The Diabetes IBS Connection with Katherine Aitken Young and Sarah Aitken

In case you want to watch (AND listen to) our podcast with Dr. Tony Hampton, it is now on YouTube!

One of the biggest challenges when struggling with gut issues is getting answers to your many questions about cause and treatment. With this in mind, we in the content creator space, work hard to bring you specific and actionable information to help answer your questions.

On this episode of Dr. Tony Hampton’s podcast, Protecting your NEST, my sister Sarah Aitken, an expert in Diabetes and Insulin Resistance, and I discuss the overlapping causes of, and treatments for, Irritable Bowel Syndrome and insulin resistance. While they are distinct disorders, there are several overlapping factors that contribute to both. Tune into this podcast to learn more.

Overlapping Factors

Certain dietary factors and lifestyle habits can contribute to both IBS and insulin resistance. These include:

• Processed foods: Consumption of highly processed and high-sugar foods can lead to inflammation and weight gain, both of which are linked to both IBS and insulin resistance.

• Inflammation: Both IBS and insulin resistance are associated with chronic inflammation. In IBS, inflammation can lead to heightened sensitivity in the gut, causing symptoms like abdominal pain, bloating, and changes in bowel habits. In insulin resistance, inflammation can impair the body's ability to effectively use insulin, leading to elevated blood sugar levels.

• Gut Microbiome: The gut microbiome, the community of bacteria living in the digestive tract, plays a crucial role in both conditions. Imbalances in the gut microbiome (dysbiosis) have been linked to both IBS and insulin resistance.

• Stress: Chronic stress can exacerbate both IBS and insulin resistance.    

• Genetics: Genetic factors may also play a role in both conditions, increasing susceptibility.

Treatment Considerations

While the exact causes of IBS and insulin resistance are complex and not fully understood, addressing the overlapping factors can be very helpful in managing both conditions. Treatment strategies often include:

• Dietary changes: Adopting a healthy, balanced diet that emphasizes whole foods, fiber, and lean protein can help improve gut health and insulin sensitivity.

• Lifestyle modifications: Regular exercise, stress management techniques (like meditation or yoga), and adequate sleep can support overall health and well-being.  

It's important to consult with a healthcare professional for a personalized diagnosis and treatment plan. If you are experiencing symptoms of IBS or insulin resistance, they can help you determine the best approach for managing your condition.

About Dr. Hampton’s Protecting Your NEST:

Protecting Your NEST is hosted by Dr. Tony Hampton a board certified Family Medicine and Obesity Medicine physician with a focus on helping listeners reverse the root cause of disease. The NEST and ROPE acronyms provide the foundational elements that represent the root cause of chronic disease if not mastered:
N: Nutrition (what and when you eat)
E: Exercise
S: Less stress/more sleep
T: How you Think/less Trauma
R: Relationships
O: Organism (avoiding the bad/adding the good)
P: Pollutants
E: Emotions/Life Experiences
