10-Common-Food-Combinations-That-Wreak-Havoc-on-Your-Health
1. Eat Fruit Alone- Fruit doesn’t combine well with other foods as it contains simple sugars
that require no digestion; thus, it will not stay for a long time in the stomach.
Other foods, such as foods rich in fat, protein and starch, will stay in the stomach for a longer period of time
because they require more digestion. So if you eat fruit after a meal, the fruit sugar will stay for too long in the stomach and ferment.
2. * No to Protein-Starch combinations (eg. cheese sandwich).
Protein and starches need different enzymes and different levels of acidity to be digested: when eaten together, your body is forced to make a choice to digest protein but not starches. Here, add greens to make it all much easier for the stomach.
3. * No to Protein-Protein combinations (eg. meat & eggs together)
One single concentrated protein per meal is easier to digest and won’t require as much energy.
4. * No to Acidic foods and carbohydrates/starches (eg. tomato sauce with pasta, orange with oatmeal/cereals).

Theconsciouslife.com/top-10-inflammatory-foods-to-avoid
Sugar, seed oils, trans fats, processed dairy, feedlot raised meat, red meat/processed meat,
alcohol, refined grains, artificial additives, a food you know you react to eg nightshade veg.
************
Soy was a health option, and now we know it's not healthy.
(but that's all asthmatics, IBS sufferers and mums with babies that sicked up cows milk could use then)
Thankfully, there's now coconut milk, rice milk, oat milk, almond milk, hemp milk.
*( Avoid processed/carton milks that have seed oils added)
Same re cooking in veg oils- it was the health option, but that's unhealthy too,
eg ALL crackers, packaged foods, potato crisps and hot chips are cooked in oil, and it's
very damaging for hearts, skin, etc. (Note-all frozen chips are now made with veg oils)
A few years ago most were in animal fats -and then animal fat was BAD.
Now it is re-discovered that animal fats are safer than veg oils to cook with, - (someone please tell the factories)..
note -Low fat foods are advertised as being better, while heart attacks are at their most prolific..
We NEED Fats, but good fats, eg coconut oil, nuts, avocado, raw olive oil, linseed,
krill oil/fish, green leaf and some animal fats.
Anyway chips done in coconut oil are tops, so is popcorn - sweetest flavour.
Eating God's whole living foods is the way to go, He made us, He made the food that suits us,
Factories process/bulk produce and add preservatives etc.
Milk- is processed, Wheat- is grown with too much gluten, Table salt- is over processed,
Seed Oils are over heated/damaged ( cooked oils molecules are indigestible)
Sugar-is over processed, Thankfully there's fab alternatives.
It is said salt is bad for heart etc,
BUT we MUST have salt, God said Salt is good, but He means real seasalt, grey damp, with all the nutrients in it.
We need sweetener, (Samson loved honey and he was one halthy guy :)
so we use honey, maple, dates, carob molasses, coconut sugar, palm sugar, apple , banana.
In the 1950's wheat was changed to have 8 times more gluten than before, now it damages everyone's gut to some degree, and so few people know it causes alzheimers, cancer, migraines, weight gain, nutrient deficiency, weight loss, bowel probs, diabetes, immune disease etc etc..
I use cocont flour, millet, besan, teff, lupin, sorghum, cassava/arrowroot, cacao,
chia, linseed, pepita, amaranth, buckwheat etc -
Hey just using wheat is so limiting :)

Whydontyoutrythis.com/15-foods-that-kill-belly-fat-fast
1) Avocados: two nutrients KEY to killing belly fat: hunger-crushing fibre (11 - 17g per avocado)
and monounsaturated fats, which studies have shown to actually "spot reduce" belly fat.
2) Peanut Butter: not just peanut butter, but any seeds and nuts: pistachios, walnuts, almonds,pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and flax seeds. Why? keeps you satisfied for long time and full of healthy fats and minerals.
3) Healthy Oils: extra virgin olive oil and coconut oil burn fat by supplying oils your body needs to burn body fat.
4) These veggies: broccoli, cauliflower, brussel sprouts, kale and cabbage contain special phytonutrients (fight-o-nutrients), such as indole-3-carbinol (I3C), which help fight against environmental estrogens that can add belly fat.
5) Omelets: Eggs arent bad!, nutrient dense with belly-burning protein, vitamins B6, B12, A, D, E and K, folate, choline, lutein, calcium, iron, phosphorus, zinc and omega3 fatty acids. Plus, keep you full for long periods of time.
6) Dark Dairy free Sugar free Chocolate: anti-oxidants (nearly 8 times that found in strawberries) and contains stimulants positive effect on fat burning - choose 80% or higher cocoa content for best results
7) Oatmeal/Porridge: packed with fibre and whole-grain goodness, you can't go wrong. Just avoid the processed, high-sugar varieties and stick to slow cook oats. Add berries, walnuts, cinnamon to taste.
8) Green Tea: Contains potent antioxidants, linked to increased fat burning, in American Journal of Clinical Nutrition green tea extract boosted daytime metabolism of test subjects by 35-43%
9) Beans: Black, navy and lima - 6 or more grams of fibre per 1/2 cup. Fibre cleans system of "toxic" waste.
10) Berries: strawberries, rasberries and blackberries -loaded wth fibre (which slows sugar absorption) and are packed with vitamins that can fight cravings. (cravings can come from vitamin deficiencies)
11) Cinnamon: Researchers have found that cinnamon contains a type of antioxidant that increases insulin sensitivity and effectively helps to stabilize blood sugar. Basically...you'll store less belly fat.
12) Chili Peppers: Studies have shown that the active ingredient in chili peppers and powder, something called capsaicin, increases calorie-burning, stabilizes blood sugar levels and is a potent antioxidant.
13) Yogurt: Most regular yougurt is bad for your belly. Its loaded with belly-bulging sugar (real or artificial). However, Greek yogurts (plain) are loaded with probiotics that fight that belly bulge.
14) Wild Salmon: One of the best belly-blasting foods because of its protein and high omega-3 fatty acid content. Many people are deficient in omega-3s and when they add them to their diet the fat can really start coming off
15) Meat: Turkey meat ( white ) or any lean protein source - includes wild, salmon, free-range chicken, whey protein powders, and grass-fed beef because it contains natural CLA - a fat that studies have actually shown to burn fat. Protein - your body will burn off as much as 30% of its calories after you eat it.

We all know that cells die as we age, but we can move into older age, with a good measure of health.
but ONLY with the right nutrients
and one has to be very aware that gluten blocks absorption of nutrient,
even so that the liver can't process fats and so the whole system can become quite imbalanced.
-- I am now free of multiple sclerosis, arthritis, hayfever and flu, from eating Gluten, sugar and dairy free,.
AND by eating God's natural foods,
I juiced veg for years, took supplements like CoQ10,
increased essential fatty acids, eg linseed, sunflower, almonds, avocado, fish oil, coconut oil.
I begin the day with lemon juice and take aloevera juice and a probiotic daily,
One must be diligent and avoid processed packets, cans and fast foods.
and esp avoid oils that are not truly cold pressed.
Only cook with ccnut oil, ghee or animal fats. Use truly cold pressed olive oil for salads.
Use salt, but only true grey seasalt or Himalayan salt.
Have veg and egg for breaky, Soup / salad for lunch, organic meats/fish and veg for dinner.
If one is still struggling to get well, find a DR that understands how to
de-tox heavy metals and then re-balance the nutrition needed.
God can guide and give us stregth to eat as He created us to.
Be patient, understand that wheat and sugar are addictive, so replace foods, don't try to just do without.
Use the word 'replace' at all times, ie use raw honey, molasses, ccnut oil, cook with it, eat wholesomely and bountifully. If you see the word 'Paleo' then eat like that, it just means healthy eating.

Love our family, love our body, I find it's love that motivates health.
As God heals our souls from hurts, and fills us with His love - His wisdom and strength guides us to know/desire/choose food - as close as we can - to how He made it.
Youth can feel invincible, and we didn't know then what we know now>>
but the damage creeps up and hits with a wham as we move into our 30's and 40's.
It is very sad visiting the cancer dept where my hubby works..
I was there recently, at the opening of the new centre.
What has happened to God's foods in the western world>> I always feel sad in there,
(thankfully hubby can bear it.)
The western world eats so much sugar and grains -Grains convert to sugar also,
and we crave-crave--put on weight, feed ill-health
and make the system acidic - and disease flourishes in an acidic system.
The best way to kick the craving and feel satisfied from the eating experience --
is eat fresh protein and more good fats,
eg for a healthy meal/breakfast-cook eggs in coconut oil or ghee or dripping with
sweet tata, onion, capsicum, tomato, zucchini etc..put lid on for egg to cook nicely.
Make raw nut choc pies..with dates and ccnut cream. --eat good and feel good.
Use coconut milk, goats milk, not dairy, as processed dairy is bad news.
Make yum mousses/smoothies with-
bananas, coconut milk, avocado, cacao, honey, cucumber, apple, chia seed, psyllium, raw almonds.
Make a fresh burger but toss out the bread :)
ie make burgers with eggs and veg and eat with meat, enjoy the meal.
Be wary of processed burgers/sausages made with flour and added oils, cancerous nitrates, preservatives etc,
Anything with preservatives gives the body gyp,

Anything with preservatives gives the body gyp,
PONDER-
How can preservatives break down inside us?
Did you know that preservatives have an accumulative effect, ie the level increases,
the body cannot break it down.
What happens to the flavours/colours, artificial additives, where do they go?
What do we want our body cells, our skin, our brains to be formed by?
Good fats don't make us fat, but grains and sugars/fructose/corn syrup does
Our brain, heart etc need omega 3 good fats.-
Dripping, Lard, Avocado, Coconut oil, Ghee/organic Butter,
Eggs, Fish, Linseed- gold linseed is yum to chew on.
Seeds eg sunflower seeds,
Organic Meat, Dark green leafy veg,
Cold pressed olive oil - don't cook with it - only use in salads mixed with honey, tamari, mustard,
Raw Nuts- (avoid nuts that are laced with oil- Heated oils are damaged -eg margy),
ie EAT God's food and feel well.
Seed oils - being heat processed are BAD,
as heat damages the cellular structure of oil and our bodies cannot digest /use it..
and those oils are in all the bought baked and packaged foods..
Read labels and avoid if it contains soy and seed oils - that's what puts on weight and causes rashes etc.
Avoid soy like the plague, even cancer dept says soy is bad news.
Avoid processed/continental meats/ hams/sausages, the nitrates are toxic/cancerous.
The reason why wheat is bad now - it was damaged back in the 50's -
a man received the Nobel prize for breeding it with higher gluten,
ie Grt Grandma's spelt wheat has gluten 11 parts per 100, todays' wheats are 80 parts pre 100,-
so it now damages from throat/gullet to bowel. it is harsh and acidic and it damages
not only the villii/stomach lining, but also escapes into the blood stream.
Drs test for celiac, but it is not a clear test, because many are gluten intolerant
and that doesn't show up in celiac tests.
Those who apply these eating tips become well, healed from MS (me),
rheumatoid arthritis, bowel diseases, migraines, asthma etc etc
PS, be aware -frozen chips contain bad oils and wheat. Most fish and chip shops use frozen chips.
As God heals our souls from hurts, and fills us with His love - His wisdom and strength guides to know/desire/choose food as close as we can - to how He made it.
How can preservatives break down inside us?
Did you know that preservatives have an accumulative effect, ie the level increases,
the body cannot break it down.
What happens to the flavours/colours, artificial additives, where do they go?
What do we want our body cells, our skin, our brains to be formed by?
Good fats don't make us fat, but grains and sugars/fructose/corn syrup does
Our brain, heart etc need omega 3 good fats.-
Dripping, Lard, Avocado, Coconut oil, Ghee/organic Butter,
Eggs, Fish, Linseed- gold linseed is yum to chew on.
Seeds eg sunflower seeds,
Organic Meat, Dark green leafy veg,
Cold pressed olive oil - don't cook with it - only use in salads mixed with honey, tamari, mustard,
Raw Nuts- (avoid nuts that are laced with oil- Heated oils are damaged -eg margy),
ie EAT God's food and feel well.
Seed oils - being heat processed are BAD,
as heat damages the cellular structure of oil and our bodies cannot digest /use it..
and those oils are in all the bought baked and packaged foods..
Read labels and avoid if it contains soy and seed oils - that's what puts on weight and causes rashes etc.
Avoid soy like the plague, even cancer dept says soy is bad news.
Avoid processed/continental meats/ hams/sausages, the nitrates are toxic/cancerous.
The reason why wheat is bad now - it was damaged back in the 50's -
a man received the Nobel prize for breeding it with higher gluten,
ie Grt Grandma's spelt wheat has gluten 11 parts per 100, todays' wheats are 80 parts pre 100,-

Just Eat Real Food
"In a world where the health-conscious are encouraged to count calories,
avoid animal fat, and rely on supplements as an "insurance policy" for wherever the diet falls short,
a NEW "Paleo" lifestyle has emerged--
blowing dated myths about "healthy living" right out of the (filtered) water.
The Paleo lifestyle is blazing a trail straight through fields of mass-produced grains, soy,
and health propaganda towards a better understanding of what truly keeps our lives,
land our families healthy. (not about being "Skinny," a Biggest Loser, or spending hours on elliptical machine.)
It hones in on some shockingly simple truths about:
…what a healthy woman truly looks like; …what carbohydrate can (and can't) really do for you; …
why you need plenty of fat—from surprising sources; …
why properly-raised animal products are vital for a fit body and a healthy planet; …
how grains and soy—of the (processed) health food industry—damage your body and the Earth; …
why we think we like certain foods that are actually making us tired, sick, and unphotogenic; …
which surprising foods can super-charge your diet plan; …
why lifting weights and using short bursts of activity just a few times each week is the best way to get fit; …
how to strip toxic chemicals from your body and your home …
how easy it is for a modern gal to care for her body and her home without losing her mind!
Living Paleo-style—means getting back to basics:
respecting your food and where it comes from; and pulling the expensive, chemical-filled stuff from every cabinet.

Are You Eating These Important Supplemental Foods?
Organic Egg yolks
number one in my book. blend effortlessly with other foods and enrich them, with vitamin A, choline, folate, selenium, iodine, and omega-3 . Eat egg yolks every day.
Liver
the most nutrient-dense food on the planet, so nutrient-dense that eating more than a pound a week is probably overkill and will net you an excessive amount of certain nutrients.
Seaweed
its been marinating in mineral-dense seawater for its entire life, best source of iodine, plus magnesium, manganese, iron, and tons of other trace minerals that you're missing out on. Some of the healthiest cultures consider seaweed a staple food. Sprinkle kelp or dulse flakes on food, make broth using dried kombu, eat seaweed salad when you eat sushi, roll up avocado and meat in nori wraps – the possibilites are many and delicious.
Turmeric
is delicious and a true health food. It s primary bioactive component – curcumin – have been shown to be anti-inflammatory, anti-lipid peroxidative, blood lipid-improving, and anti-carcinogenic. sprinkle it liberally on eggs, meat, and vegetables, and make a tea out of it. Add black pepper to increase the benefits.
Bone broth
Get bones, cover with water, cook til soft. Make it a routine, good source of minerals and gelatin. balancing the amino acid methionine with glycine from gelatin is advised. Since methionine metabolism depletes glycine.
Gelatin improves joint pain and sleep quality.
Bone marrow
nutrient-dense - an important supplemental food. fatty, calorie-dense, and delicious
Shellfish
particularly oysters and mussels,-
Four medium sized Pacific oysters supply a smattering of B-vitamins (including over 1000% of daily B12),
1200 IU of vitamin A, a third of daily folate, almost 7 mg of vitamin E, 3 mg copper, 280% of daily selenium, and 33 mg zinc. -- with 18 g protein, 4 g fat, 1.5 g omega-3, 0.1 g omega-6, and 9 grams of carbohydrates.
Why mussels? - rich in B-vitamins, selenium, zinc, and protein, and good amounts of magnesium and manganese. Other shellfish are also good, but probably not as important as oysters and mussels.
Aged cheese
Gouda and pecorino romano. Gouda is the cheese with highest vitamin K2 content, and the longer the cheese is aged (fermented), the more K2. Pecorino romano, must come from raw sheep’s milk grazed on lush grasses, and it must be made the traditional way – from animal rennet. -a salty, sharp cheese with bite, CLA, and the ability to “cause favourable biochemical changes of atherosclerotic markers.”
Natto
natto is a special kind of soy. It’s fermented using a particular strain of bacterium called Bacillus subtilis natto. When steamed soybeans are inoculated with b. subtilis, they transform from a basic legume into a powerful supplemental food imbued with high levels of vitamin K2, a nutrient important in bone mineralization, cancer prevention, and protection from heart disease. -natto is the single best source of vitamin K2.
Tiny whole fish
ie sardines, anchovies, smelt. between half inch and six inches long. for the algae, krill, and assorted microscopic marine goodies tiny fish eat, in addition to the omega-3s and protein, and because they’re low on the food chain, tiny fish will be largely free of the heavy metals other, larger fish tend to accumulate.
Red palm oil
For the omega-6 content, vitamin E is scarce in the diet. Go for African palm oil
Brazil nuts for Selenium, fresh from shell if possible
Purple/blue foods (sweet potatoes, berries, vegetables)
for the potent polyphenols – bioactive compounds found in plants.
No bioactive color has been more studied and lauded than the blue/purple anthocyanins,
which are linked to anti-inflammatory, anti-atherosclerotic, and anti-carcinogenic effects
Fermented food
ie Organic yogurts, kefir, sauerkraut, kimchis, nattos, beet kvasses, kombucha.
Benefits- more numerous and more bioavailable nutrients, new nutrients,
new genetic material for your gut flora to acquire,

Honey and cinnamon cures - do they really work?
Here's what you need to know
naturalnews_honey_cures_cinnamon
Disease results from imbalance, so finding health and balance again requires choices about how we live.
A couch potato who follows up a dinner of fried chicken and potato chips
with a dessert of cinnamon and honey will receive few health benefits.
You are more likely to reap the full healing power when you include honey and cinnamon
as part of a healthy lifestyle.

A Twist on the breakfast story
Having a late breakfast can help lose weight,
[exercising before breakfast also helps burn calories]
Eat in an 8 hour window ie after 10am and before 6pm
Give Intermittent Fasting a Try
Consider skipping breakfast, eat an early lunch and dinner
and make sure you stop eating three hours before you go to sleep,
so you’re eating within an 8-hour time frame every day.
In the 6-8 hours that you do eat, you want to have healthy protein,
minimize your carbs like pasta and bread and potatoes
and exchange them for HEALTHY fats
ie ghee / organic butter, eggs, avocado, coconut oil, raw olive oil and raw nuts.
[ie The type of fats the media tell you to avoid.]
This will help shift you to fat burning mode from carb burning mode.
Remember it takes a few weeks, and you have to do it gradually,
but once you succeed to switch to fat burning mode,
you will be easily able to fast for 18 hours and not feel hungry.
Your cravings for sugar will magically disappear and it will be much easier to achieve your ideal weight.
The other benefit that occurs is that you will radically improve the beneficial bacteria in your gut.
Why is this a good thing? Because supporting healthy gut bacteria, which actually outnumber your cells 10 to one—is one of the most important things you can do to improve your immune system so you won’t get sick,
or get coughs, colds and flus. You will sleep better, have more energy,
have increased mental clarity and concentrate better.
Essentially every aspect of your health will improve.

Fluid retention....
Dawn shares: "Hi my name us Dawn - after 27 years searching for answers I am now pain free...why?
I had been to specialist after specialist, Drs and no-one could help me get rid of the fluid retention in my legs...
they looked like tree stumps swollen, painfully sore, ulcerative and horrid to look at...
I decided after reading your site to change my lifestyle and maybe it would help...
Within 5 days of being grain free and totally organic, I no longer had any fluid retention,
then after a week no pain,
I cannot explain how liberating the feeling is...I no longer wince in pain when my legs are touched by me or my children....I am so much happier, I spoke to my Dr and she could not explain why it worked
but to keep doing what I am doing...I will never eat grain again, I am pain free....and staying this way..
One day I met a personal trainer who makes the yummiest Vietnamese deserts,
I asked what was in them- hoping there was no grain but there is,
I explained to her my story and she told me the problem is Phytic acid, so I googled and found this site...
nourishingdays.com/what-is-phytic-acid
It confirmed what you share...now my Dr is interested

PLUS the body can't properly digest anything when feeding it sugar.

Worldtruth.tv/what-are-the-top-alkaline-forming-foods
Maximize alkaline foods to prevent chronic disease from developing.
learn which foods are alkaline-forming, and which are acid-forming, and how to eat them in balance.
The chemicals, additives, and genetically-modified organisms (GMOs)
and heavy reliance on processed, nutrient-stripped foods, is taking a huge toll on human health.
Most people also eat copious amounts of food that promote acidity,
which in turn makes them more prone to disease.-decrease acid-forming foods like
alcohol, breads, feedlot-based meats, sugar, and coffee.
What most people fail to realize is that their bodies are constantly trying to achieve a state of equilibrium
at a pH of about 7.365, which is slightly alkaline. To do this, the body draws from the nutrients
you put into it via food, which either acidifies or alkalizes the blood.
When there are not enough nutrients to maintain this slightly alkaline state,
the body draws from backup nutrient reserves in the bones and other places.
When these backups run dry, the body’s internal biological terrain becomes a hotbed for chronic disease,
which is right about the time the mainstream medical system begins rolling out the drugs.
A much simpler solution; though, at least for most people, is to simply switch up their diets
and begin to incorporate more alkaline-forming foods into their everyday meals.
top-alkaline-forming-foods
• Cucumbers • Chia seeds
• Figs • Sprouts • Dates • String beans
• Root vegetables (radishes, carrots, beets, turnips, rutabagas)
• Almonds • Avocados
• Cruciferous vegetables (broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage)
• Fresh coconuts • Raw, grass-fed milk
• Leafy greens (kale, spinach, Swiss chard, turnip greens)
• Raisins • Lemons
• Cayenne pepper • Wheatgrass
• Melons (watermelon, cantaloupe, honeydew)

We have heard why breathing thru the nose is better, here's why
Would you believe me if I told you that how you choose to breathe,
whether through your mouth or through your nose can have a direct effect on your digestion?
This provides us with a cheap, simple and effective way to slow down, eat mindfully and improve digestion.
Here’s how: Breathing through your nose activates a different biological response in your body than breathing through your mouth. Breathing through your nose activates your parasympathetic nervous system (PSNS) while breathing through your mouth activates your sympathetic nervous system (SNS). Why does this matter?

Most fresh fruits contain zinc, avocados, raspberries, apricots, blackberries, dates, longan berries, and pomegranates. Organic dried peaches, plums, currants, bananas, and figs. Many vegetables contain zinc. Asparagus, brussels sprouts, peas, pumpkin, and chard. |
A nice little chart breakdown with a list of some herbal/nut medicinals to help liver/stomach/kidney/bowels and also help deal with parasites.
Some think that since something is good, more must be better. These are powerful medicinals and it's best to treat them as such. Potents medicines like garlic can be really intense for the gastrointestinal tract and only need to be taken on their own as a tonic when specific symptoms are showing, not necessarily every single day.- but garlic is good to add to casseroles etc any time.

There is growing research showing that this connection to the Earth's surface plays a vital role in preventing disease and offers a host of benefits from improved sleep to pain relief. The problem, of course, is that while humans have historically spent much of their days with their bare skin next to the Earth (walking and sleeping,
sleeping on animal skins, which allow electrons to enter the body),
today this vital connection has been lost in the western world.
So go walking on the beach, the back lawn and enjoy tenting.

Grains

Your biological terrain is deranged by grains
Naturalnews.com_biological_terrain_grains_starches
Foods that disrupt the biological terrain diminish the negative charge of the red blood cells.
In essence, although they taste good to many people,
these foods accelerate the process of rotting, or the composting of Western civilization.
After high-sugar foods, grains constitute the next major class of yeast/fungi/mold-stimulating foods.
In discussing this topic, I do not want to be in a position of going "against the grain" of society,
but as I look closely at this issue,
I need to point out the effect of grain on our society and our health.
Historical records suggest that humanity thrived on a diet primarily composed of
vegetables, fruits, nuts, and seeds.
The only natural grain eaters are birds.
To eat grains, humans usually have to cook them (some grains, however, can be sprouted).
Vitamins, minerals, enzymes, co-enzymes, carbohydrates, proteins, and fats
are damaged or destroyed by the heat of cooking,
and what we get with grains after they have been cooked is the
maximum amount of calories with the minimum amount of nutrients.
As a psychiatrist and holistic physician, I see many people with eating disorders.
Many have problems with starches, especially the white flour, white-sugar starches that we call pastries.
The eating of these foods seems to be very much connected with blood-sugar imbalances,
depression, and short-term highs.
It seems that most people do not binge on vegetables, but they do binge on starches.
Starchy foods are the number-one choice to "calm and comfort."
One name for this addiction is "starchaholic."
Additional symptoms of starchaholics include an immediate clarity
that they feel when they have their sweet or starch, which moves to confusion;
and changes in mental state from well-being to negativity and depression, from peaceful to aggressive,
from a sensitive, tuned-in person to one who is numb, from energetic (which may happen initially for a few minutes to one half-hour or an hour) to lethargic. These symptoms are very common.
As people begin to withdraw from these starches
there often is emotional pain associated with the withdrawal,
which creates a tremendous drive to have that piece of cake or pizza in order to feel better.
A high percentage of my patients have grain allergies and get much better when they stop eating grains.
Grain allergies not only cause the typical mucous membrane irritation, congestion, asthma, and sinusitis,
but can have an effect on the mental state as well.
Gluten, an ingredient in many grain products, has been associated with several forms
of mental and neurological disorders.
Some research has found that gluten contains fifteen different opioid sequences (morphine-like molecules).
These can add to the addictiveness and neurotoxic effect of the grains.
I believe that these opioids are in some way connected to the addictive eating patterns associated with grains,
as well as to some learning disorders and to schizophrenic reactions in some people.
