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:

      Ground meat absolutely full of gluten?

      By glucel · Posted

      Flavorings usually identified but don't know if there are laws that govern that. I bot lamb shanks that had rosemary flavor but did not see anything else that might be a grain so I ate it. I eat tons ground beef usually organic and grass fed from aldi. Not identified as gluten-free but hopefully it is. On the other hand I would only eat hot dogs which has several ingredients if identified gluten-free.

      Absolutel liquor

      By Doug1229 · Posted

      All liquor that has been distilled are gluten-free because the liquor is captured from evaporation. Gluten is a heavy protein that will not evaporate make it safe for all celiac’s. cheers!

      Ground meats can contain flavorings and fillers. You must look for the gluten-free symbol on the packaging. I use Jennie-O brands which are marked gluten-free.

      Gluten Free ADHD medications

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      I take Clonidine for blood pressure control.  It is the only one that did not debiltate me.  It also helps with my ADD.  Doctors always turned me down when I requested Ritalin (I am an adult) so it turned out for the best that I reacted badly to all the different BP meds they tried. Originally Clonidine was developed for ADHD adolescents that could not tolerate Ritalin.

      9 year old- questionable results

      You should also have her checked for vitamin deficiencies.   "Iodine's presence in the diet can contribute positively to hair strength and elasticity by maintaining hair follicle cycling and supporting the synthesis of hair shaft components like keratin. Keratin is strong and won't dissolve in diluted acids, alkalines, solvents, or water" "Keratosis pilaris is a benign skin condition characterized by small bumps around hair follicles. It is caused by excess keratin, a protein that forms hair, nails, and skin. Iodine is not directly related to keratosis pilaris, but certain foods can help improve it" It could be deficiency in iodine may be causing the keratosis Polaris.  Insufficient iodine intake affects healing, intellegence skin and nails. The average intake of iodine fell 50% from 1970 to now.  A Medium Urinary Iodine Concentration test will indicate intake.  TSH and T4 will not show iodine intake deficiency until damage is being done. Most newly diagnosed Celiac Disease and other autoimmune diseases are deficient in vitamin D when diagnosed.  Other than bone growth, vitamin D is essential for mental health and the immune system.
