Guest guest Posted June 22, 2005 Report Share Posted June 22, 2005 I read Kay Shepphard's book's, " Food Addiction " and " From the First Bite " and she believes along with many others that people are addicted to wheat and sugar. I tried her program for awhile and like everything else it worked as long as I worked it - but she does not recommend it for vegetarians. http://www.kaysheppard.com/ Also there is a www.foodaddictsanonymous.org They have some vegetarians but few. Also there is a celiac disease that people do not have a lining in their intestines and cannot eat any wheat and many other grains. You can go to Google and put in the word " celiac " and get tons of info. It is my understanding that it is the gluten that is the problem. I have found for me it is the wheat that has sat in bins as white goo with no nutrients that causes the wanting to eat more... it's taken me years to get to that. It's the actual processing of the food that causes me to want more. My cure today is: fresh food with life in it. If I eat dead food - I feel yukky. Makes simple sense. I have a Vita-Mix and grind my own grains and make scones occasionally. I don't want or eat much wheat products - they are too processed. Ocassionally when I am out there isn't much else to eat so I do but I don't feel too good if I eat more. Sugar is rare - that is a big trigger food for me to eat more of anything.
