The craving for sugar will cease about one week of no sugar at all. The craving may come back strong one or two days after that, but if you can avoid them someway, you're on your way to freedom from a very harmful product. I think
adding extra Vitamin C at the time is helpful in stopping the cravings, too.

The body can break down slow-acting carbohydrates (vegetables, potatoes,etc.) into all the glucose the brain needs.

Otherwise, it's mostly breaking the habit of caffeine first and then going after the
sugar cravings. One day, you'll feel the fog completely gone.

Those two are the ones most difficult to remove from the diet but the two that
are most beneficial when removed.

Did you see the article on the news today about wheat being really bad for us
in this country because of genetic alterations of the grain by the farming industry during the l970's?

It supposedly has gliadin in it which acts on opiate centers in the brain (that's what heroin does) and it causes addiction....I've known that grains were addictive for ages. Dr. William Davis (who gave the report) said that it had no relevance to gluten--which celiac patients can't use at all.

This is another thing that has come to the attention of the medical field. Apparently, in Dr. Davis' thinking, the omission of current wheat products could cause a transformation in this country with the overweight problem. I thought it was interesting. (He had no views on oats, barley, etc.--just wheat.)

Keep up the good work.
