\"Gluten<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

What you may not realize, however, is that bread and all wheat-based products can actually be addictive in nature. Meaning there\u2019s more going on than a simple taste preference causing you to prefer that food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is why cutting these foods out is often so problematic. You try to omit them from your diet, and the next thing you know, you\u2019re halfway through a loaf of bread. You now feel miserable about yourself and don\u2019t understand why you can\u2019t stick to the diet plan for once.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So what is it about gluten that\u2019s so addictive? How come you just can\u2019t get off the wheat bandwagon?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s go over some of the main points, so you know why this is so dangerous for your health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gluten And Serotonin<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"Tablet<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

First, let\u2019s talk about how eating gluten impacts your brain. When most people think about the foods they eat, they don\u2019t tend to think about what takes place in the brain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remember, everything you eat on a day-to-day basis impacts your system as a whole \u2013 brain included. It isn\u2019t just about your body and fueling that belly of yours. It\u2019s about nourishing your entire body, which includes your brain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And gluten can do a number on your brain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you eat gluten or any simple carbohydrate-based food, for that matter, your brain is going to release a neurotransmitter called serotonin<\/em>. This is the same neurotransmitter, believe it or not, that is released when you do certain types of recreational drugs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So in a sense, one could almost liken eating gluten to taking drugs. Okay, maybe we won\u2019t go quite that far, as hard drugs are more addictive than gluten, but that connection is still there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you consume gluten, your brain releases this substance, and in return, you find you feel calm, relaxed, and in a better mood. Think about it for a second. Let\u2019s say you treat yourself to a large box of donuts. How are you feeling afterward?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Take away the fact you may be feeling slightly guilty from eating all those donuts. What else do you feel? Did your mood improve? Do you feel less stressed and anxious? Are you feeling a bit sleepy as well?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These are all effects that serotonin has on you. When you down that box of donuts, you feel good. Your body \u2013 and brain \u2013 love it. Never mind that you may slowly start to feel worse and worse as this serotonin effect starts to wear off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The fact is, once it does start to wear off, that\u2019s when you\u2019re going to want another \u2018hit,\u2019 so to speak. You\u2019re going to want to keep taking in more and more of these simple carbs made from gluten so that you can keep feeling that way. After this cycle has repeated itself a number of times, that\u2019s when you may find that you\u2019ve now become addicted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019re in a chain of events, and it might feel nearly impossible to break free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this manner, simple carbohydrates are addictive. There are actual changes in brain chemistry that take place when you eat them, so don\u2019t feel too bad when you go in for yet another slice of that bread.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It isn\u2019t just your willpower failing you here; it\u2019s physical alterations in how your body is working that are prompting you to eat these foods that you crave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gluten And Exorphins<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Now, in addition to having an impact on this brain chemical, there is another way in which gluten proves to be addictive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is some research out there now illustrating that when gluten is broken down in the body, the peptides that it’s made up of (the proteins found in gluten<\/em>) can activate opioid receptors<\/strong><\/a> in the body. These peptides are referred to as gluten exorphins and cannot be made in the body itself. Therefore, they have to come from outside substances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When active, these opioid receptors trigger the pain\/pleasure reward center in the brain and can lead to a strong addiction. Many don\u2019t realize how strong this can be, but for anything triggering it, you may be driven to keep consuming that substance to reap the same effects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Dangerous Effects Of Gluten Addiction <\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"Bread<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n


Now you might be thinking, so what. Even if gluten is addictive, it\u2019s not nearly as dangerous as being addicted to, say cocaine or some other hard drug.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While that may be true, this doesn\u2019t mean it shouldn\u2019t get your attention. In fact, for a select group of people who are dealing with celiac disease<\/em>, the fact is when you consume gluten, the proteins found in gluten can be very damaging<\/em> to your digestive system. This can cause real issues that could lead to malabsorption, nutritional deficiencies, and long-lasting health problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Those suffering from celiac disease must carefully assess everything they put into their body. A gluten addiction could become fatal if not addressed for those individuals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And even for those who don\u2019t have celiac disease, gluten addiction can be problematic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First, it drives you to consume more food. When you are addicted to gluten and wheat-rich foods, you\u2019re on the high carbohydrate bandwagon for life, more or less. Almost all foods that are rich in gluten are also naturally high in carbohydrates and are typically high in calories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As you may already know, when you consume processed carbohydrates, your blood glucose level will spike and then quickly crash, leaving you running for more carbohydrates. If you go through this cycle often enough \u2013 eating carbohydrates, craving carbohydrates, eating more carbohydrates, it\u2019s only a matter of time before your weight balloons upwards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A higher body weight sets you up for many health challenges that must be considered seriously. Even if you are someone who practices body acceptance and therefore isn\u2019t bothered all that much by a 10-pound weight gain or so, this doesn\u2019t mean that you\u2019re healthy at that higher body weight. You may accept yourself, but health must be kept at the forefront of your mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another reason that gluten addiction is a very serious problem is that it can also set you up to experience very high blood sugar levels. Gluten-based foods are usually simple carbohydrates, and when consumed, they cause the body to release a high amount of insulin to control the corresponding blood sugar high that you are experiencing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over time as this keeps happening, your cells may get less and less sensitive to the insulin, and as a result, you may become insulin resistant. This is just one step away from developing full-blown diabetes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another big problem? poor Inflammatory response. <\/em>A big reason that many of us exhibit poor inflammatory response is because of our body’s over-reliance on wheat-based foods, to begin with. By cutting these out and going gluten-free, we resolve the problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, for those dealing with celiac disease, consuming wheat may also trigger other autoimmune diseases. There appears to be a strong correlation between individuals with celiac disease and those with Hashimotos Thyroiditis<\/strong><\/a>, diabetes, and multiple sclerosis. These are all conditions that can be devastating to your health in the long run.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By eliminating wheat-based foods from your diet, you take a protective stance against these conditions, reducing the chances that they become a part of your health picture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So as you can see, gluten addiction is a very real thing, and if you are addicted, it can devastate your overall health and well-being. Those who are addicted to gluten are setting themselves up for all of these problems if they can\u2019t get control their addiction and break free once and for all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Given the nature of the addiction, breaking free can be quite challenging. Many people have tried multiple times to start eating wheat-free, but eventually, bread returns to their diet.<\/p>\n\n\n
