GO Wheat Free - One Step at a Time Dee M Geiles
By making the wheat-free decision and doing it one day at a time, you will find that you are possibly on your way to a new, thinner and healthier you with a clearer mind and less ache and pains. Some experiences of wheat withdrawals are cravings. These cravings generally occur in 2-hour cycles and studies have shown that people who eat a high carbohydrate diet of wheat products every day, such as snacks, cereals, or bread, pasta, cause their metabolism to rely on a constant supply of sugar ("Wheat Belly"). By removing the sugar source, it forces the body to burn fatty acids. The Next Step: After you have kicked the wheat habit, additional elimination of other high carbohydrates is also beneficial, such as: deserts, rice, potatoes, legumes, gluten-free foods, fruit juices, soft drinks, dried fruit, corn starch, cornmeal products, and other grains. What's Left to Eat? Some people may wonder: What's left to eat once they remove wheat from their diets? Be creative with you wheat free choices, extend your food choices from what you are used to habitually eating. When successfully wheat free, you may find that you are eating for breakfast, what you would have in the past eaten for dinner. You will be eating real food, and experiencing all the good effects of truly good nutrition. For me I love yummy vegetables! You'll be surprised at the incredible variety you will find, as well as tastes, textures and versatility vegetables give you. Other foods include fruits and raw nuts, a wide range of meats, and eggs as well as dairy products such as cheese, condiments, such as olives, raw nuts and seeds, pickled vegetables, and odds and ends that provide variety. Examples of wheat-free menus might include: a breakfast of scrambled eggs, try sun-dried tomatoes, feta cheese, mushrooms and basil, with some nuts such as raw almonds, pecans or pistachios. For lunch, a tuna salad with onions or scallions, and shredded carrots mixed with mayonnaise. Choose from pickled vegetables, a hard-boiled egg, cheese cubes or olives as a side accompaniment.
Dinner's wheat-free menu can be anything from baked chicken or salmon, steak or chops, perhaps with sautĂŠed vegetables, such as red and green capsicum, onion and zucchini, and a baby spinach salad with walnuts, red onion and balsamic vinaigrette dressing. Greek salads are always tasty and vegetable soups pureed, tomato soup from fresh tomatoes, and good old-fashioned chicken soup. I'm sure once you get going; you will find many new recipes that suit your lifestyle and taste. I wish you all the best on this journey back to health. Bon Appetite, and enjoy being Wheat-Free! When my daughter was diagnosed with MS (Multiple Sclerosis) at the age of 12 and only expected to live for another 5years, I was driven to hunt down all the information I could find on MS and how I could best help my daughter. From there I began to research and learn about all kinds of health issues. I also discovered some of the best natural health products. 20 years on, my daughter is very much alive.
