Glutenfree And Diminishing Cravings

Hi I am a newbie here, I want to share about my discovery that when I manage to be glutenfree my unwanted (erotic non-porn voyeurist) cravings disapear and become completely manageable. I am able to say no, I dont even have the pull...it is such a relief after decades of suffering with this (as a family man it was highly unwanted and managed it only with therapies /12steps, Freud and co-counseling plus religion/). Although the other celiac symptoms also disappear (itchings, depressive fatigue, epileptic cramps, diarrhea), but this is my biggest prize...so I am baffled when I read others saying they crave this and that...it is obvious that they do not have such a reward...yes, I am always hungry now (especially when in town and I dont have my rice waffles on me) but it is worth while to restrict myself since this diet has such a huge healing effect on me. I wonder if anyone has had similar relief experience? Geo (Budapesht)

On another lsit I got this reply:

(on may 19)I recently

started a food diet a few weeks ago and during the week my diet is basically

gluten free, without that intention. I'm not celiac B"H but I chose foods

that happen not to have gluten or small traces of it. On Week

I have found that adding chery flavored minerals from Youngevity help a great deal with cravings for carbohydrates.

I am new to the diet and I notice I am loosing water retention weight.

:rolleyes:

      I recently started shopping at a nearby Trader Joe's store. I was surprised at the number and variety of (healthy) gluten-free options sold there. I must admit their low prices are also quite tempting. However, I am curious as to the labeling on all their packages. While none of their products are certified as gluten-free, many are identified as 'GLUTEN FREE' on the packaging. Are these items safe for celiacs? Has anyone tried Trader Joe's products and have there been any adverse reactions?

      HI, my doctor suggested one week of consuming gluten before blood tests.  I have been gluten free for 3 years.  Has anyone been through this and will I get exact results after one week of consuming gluten?  I don't even know if I can do this, if I get sick I am not sure if I can continue, any suggestions??  Thanks in advance.

      I did reach out to them on April 4th and left a message. I will try calling again. Thank you!

      PPI's can be a wonderful healing agent when used as prescribed on the label which I believe recommends use of up to 8 weeks. But they are like antibiotics in that they are overprescribed and undermonitored. Docs generally prescribe them and then keep prescribing them because they take care of immediate symptoms so well. Physicians are more into treating symptoms than uncovering causes.

      For the vast majority of celiacs it's probably safe, however, it seems that for those who are super sensitive it's best to avoid such products. It's fairly easy now to find brands that are naturally gluten-free, which is what Celiac.com recommends.  You might finds this article interesting:
