Why Gluten Free? Part 1 #glutenfree

Why Gluten Free?  Part 1 #glutenfree

If you’ve been hearing a great deal about the benefits of going gluten free, you’re not alone. If you’ve been noticing that grocery store aisles for gluten free products are growing, you are not alone. In fact, the gluten-free industry made 3.5 billion dollars last year, and you need to know why.

I have gleaned most of my information from a great book called Grain Brain by Dr. David Perlmutter, who is a neurological surgeon and also a founding member of Holistic Foundation and has a doctorate in nutrition as well. In this book you will find 1000s reasons to get off of gluten, add necessary fat back into your diet, and remove most of the sugar and simple carbs from your diet.

The influence of gluten and sugar in the diet, not only cause inflammation to the joints and make your stomach feel sour, but they can cause insistent migraines, contribute to diabetes, cause other neurological problems such as twitching, Turret’s, and Lou Garrick’s disease, and most importantly Dementia and Alzheimer’s.

Your brain needs a proper amount of fat to function properly. But when you introduce gluten, too many carbs, and sugar to your diet, the fat that is supposed to go to your brain to help with depression and to think accurately, releases one of its atoms making the fat a free radical in the body. LDL fats, which have been known to be bad for the body, are actually essential for the brain’s health. But these LDL fats cannot be free radical fats. Sugar and carbs are what cause these fats to change from an essential part of brain health to a detrimental form.

Dr. Perlmutter has found that almost everyone has a resistance to gluten, even people who don’t have Celiac disease. He includes a few blood tests in his book to help your figure out if you are sensitive. As I said, most people are because of how gluten is processed in the body. These grains are the main problems, mostly because the have been highly modified in the past few years by scientists: wheat, rye, barley, semolina, spelt, matzo, couscous, wheat germ, bulgur.

In the next week, I’m going to walk you through some of the problems with gluten, starches, and sugar in your diet and help you find great alternatives in the food market today.

New Challenge: Go to Week 9 of the “Year to CLEAR Challenge” at www.Bosebastian.com
______________________________________________

Look for MY LATEST BOOK:  “Finding Authentic You, 7 Steps to Effective Change” with a Year to CLEAR (C-larity, L-ove, E-nthusiasm A-nd R-elationship-Ready) on my Website in the Webstore. Thanks!

Below is information that I will be sharing for about a month, as not every person on my list reads the blog every day. If you have already read it, just skip over it. Thanks for understanding.

A Year to CLEAR Challenge:
(Please Know: You Can Join Us At Any Point in the Year Challenge.)

The masses search outward for things that qualify them as a person, but I always go inward for that which quantifies me for greatness. At twenty-five I preached on street corners in NYC as an in-the-closet Pentecostal minister. One day I heard a still small voice say, ‘God cannot be contained in a book or a law or even in a religion. Dig deeper, reach further to find me, and you will find your authentic Self.’”

A Year to CLEAR Challenge!

The acronym CLEAR stands for (Compassionate, Loving, Enthusiastic, And Relationship-Ready). The goal of this project is to engulf readers in a weekly study that will transform them by removing blocks, promote self-growth, and give them wings to fly freely into daily life. Each week, by going to BoSebastian.com and choosing the Year to CLEAR Challenge tab, a new challenge or thought to provoke conversation, growth, and group functionality.

My vision is to make Finding Authentic You the book to have in your Kindle or on your computer. The book is a comprehensive look at growth—spiritually, mentally, and physically.

As a yoga teacher and student of the Ayurvedic tradition, I bring to the table understanding of physical challenges, the ability to overcome mental problems with Life & Health Coaching, as well as hypnotherapy, and expertise in meditation and spirituality as a minister.

The combination of all three in one book with an interactive connection to like-minded readers, for one year, is what makes this Year to CLEAR Challenge a must-do for every spiritual seeker.

The One-Year Approach to Change

No one believes he or she can change overnight. But success in change comes from the metaphors of nature. Seasonally, life changes all around us in nature. Finding Authentic You offers a gradual change perspective, looking at the triune aspects of change as in yoga: Body, Mind and Spirit.

Accessing the ability to change and finding yourself actually pursuing change must be a daily search, which I call getting to the “observer mind.”

In this frontal cortex of the brain we find the anatomy of change and the power to counter every negative trigger of the human process. The workings of Hypnosis, NLP (Neuro-linguistic Programming) and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) are all positive actions to help the mind and body flow to a positive space for change.

Every aspect of FINDING AUTHENTIC YOU fulfills this constant need for diffusing the negative past and dreaming of a fulfilling future.

Step 1: Recognize That Change is Inevitable
Step 2: Release from Resistance to Change
Step 3: Understanding Change and Allow Spirit to Define It
Step 4: A History Lesson—About You
Step 5: Look at Your Past with Compassion
Step 6: Making a Strong Commitment to Change
Step 7: Dream Your Fabulous Future
