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:

      Yes stress can .make the pain worse. That being said it is taking years for my body to heal. I am not able to eat out as 98 % of restaurants do not know how to cook for celiacs.  I only eat out on special occasions. Any time I eat gluten I feel there is a tourch going through my digestive system specifically in the area you have mentioned.  Like where the deudenal is . I am very sensitive to cross contamination so any small amount of gluten makes me sick.

      @Ems10, celiac diagnosis normally involves two steps. The first one is serum antibody testing which you may have already have had done and are waiting on the results. The second step involves and endoscopy (aka, gastroscopy) with biopsy of the small bowel lining. This second step is typically ordered if one or more antibody tests were positive, is a confirmation of the serum antibody testing and is considered the gold standard diagnostic test for celiac disease. Now hear this, you should not be eating gluten free weeks or months in advance of either kind of testing. Prematurely going on a gluten free diet can and will sabotage the results of the endoscopy/biopsy should you get a referral to a GI doc who would want to do that. Eliminating gluten from the diet causes causes inflammation to subside which allows the small bowel ling to heal such that the damage they would be looking for is no longer there.

      Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      It might make sense for you to find out if they've run a celiac disease test on you, and if not, consider planning for it.

      Thanks for your reply! I’m really not too sure, the doctor just took a few tubes of blood & that’s all I know 🥹
