Wheat is generally considered a nutritious food, as it is rich in vitamin C, B vitamins, zinc and iron, as well as having a high fibre content. This is why wheat is the most widely used cereal in the western world, and as a consequence for many individuals (including many who are totally unaware) wheat can actually be causing them problems.
Some symptoms of wheat intolerance are constipation, diarrhoea, bloating, flatulence, indigestion, lethargy, irritability and depression. Wheat can also aggravate other diseases such as arthritis, eczema, psoriasis, and irritable bowel syndrome. It also seems to have a suppressive action on the liver, so even people who appear to tolerate it well, can slow down the rate at which they eliminate toxins, by eating too much wheat.

100. Addicted To Food
My friend has been diagnosed with an eating disorder – she’s addicted to food. Well millions of people are, but she is currently having CBT Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to combat it.
She even tried those hoodia gordonii tablets that are supposed to be appetite suppressants, and she said they worked, but sadly, as she is addicted, she still continued to eat even when she was full up, so the tablets did not stop her eating – just tell her she was full sooner!
Good Luck with the CBT Dawn!
