<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> I fell for it. Many others have, too. It's so tempting to believe that all our health problems can be solved by the GF diet alone. I call it the gluten myth. I goes something like this: I can be perfectly healthy eating anything I want as long as it's gluten free. I fell for this simplistic line of thinking shortly after I was diagnosed. No one imposed this belief on me. I developed it in my own fuzzy mind. Three years ago, I nearly wiped myself out with GF junk food. I actually became sicker after going GF than I had ever been before in my life! I kept searching for the hidden source of gluten that was ruining my life. I eventually learned the hard way that if I want to be healthy I have to follow a highly nutritious whole food diet, supplement appropriately & restrain myself from indulging in GF sweets & treats. Oh RATS! You mean I have to exercise self restraint? I have to be disciplined? Can't someone else take responsibility for this? Life isn't fair. Whine, whine, whine . . . .
