Gluten Free Diet:
Inflammation
Warning: If you choose to be gluten free, avoid the commercial gluten free products, at least until you educate yourself on the differences between the various gluten free products on the market.
What Can I Eat?
Eat real, single ingredient non-grain foods as much as possible. You can focus most of your diet on nuts, healthy fats, organic fruits/vegetables, grass-fed beef, organic chicken and turkey, wild caught salmon, cheese, organic eggs, coconuts, avocados, seeds, olive and hemp oils as well as a variety of other foods that are in their natural state. The more processed and refined a food is, the more likely it contains wheat and other by products of the refinement process that are just too dangerous to your health.
Gluten Free Diet:
TheAlternativeDaily.com has an interesting article called “Is
Modern Wheat Making You Fat and Sick?” Some interesting points from the article:
It is estimated that up to 10% of the
population has a sensitivity to the protein in wheat known as gluten. Some
estimate that it may be higher, closer to 30%. The article explains that the
other 90% of people who consume wheat really should not be eating it either.
Why?
Modern Wheat Destroys Blood Sugar
Two slice of whole wheat bread raise sugar higher than 6
teaspoons of table sugar!!!! Wheat for breakfast (cereals), wheat for lunch
(bread) and wheat for snacks (granola bars) results in visceral fat that
encircles the intestines, heart, liver and kidneys. This results in what Dr
Davis calls a “wheat belly”.
Inflammation
People who eat wheat
usually have inflammation such as joint inflammation, bowel
inflammation, acid reflux, inflammation of the brain, inflammation of the
airways etc.
