Avoid toxic wheat re-exposures

We learned years ago that, once you are wheat- and grain-free, re-exposures to any wheat or grains can provoke some awful re-exposure reactions.

Here, I discuss the range of unpleasant consequences that develop with wheat and grain re-exposure. Among the consequences of re-exposure are:

• Gastrointestinal distress—discofort/pain, diarrhea, bloating
• Joint pain—especially of the fingers, hands, wrists, and elbows, occasionally large joints
• Mental/emotional effects—most commonly anxiety, anger, depression, irritability
• Reactivation of autoimmune diseases
• Hunger—re-exposure to gliadin-derived opioid peptides reactivates hunger, what I call the “I ate one cookie and gained 30 pounds” effect
• Provocation of small LDL particles—that raise cardiovascular risk
• Alterations in bowel flora—due to the many bowel toxins in wheat, as well as the amylopectin A that nourishes unhealthy bacterial species and fungi.

The key is to remember: Once you are wheat/grain-free, you should remain wheat/grain-free and avoid all the potential problems and unpleasantness associated with re-exposure.
