LOSE WEIGHT WITH THE WHEAT-FREE DIET

Cutting wheat out of your diet can have a huge impact on your weight and the way you feel. And best of all this shouldn’t involve cutting down the amount you eat.

That being said, giving up wheat is not easy. You only have to try giving up wheat to realise that it is contained in all of the foods you most enjoy, pasta, bread, cakes, biscuits pastries. The whole mission of the Wheat and Dairy Free Supermarket is to make this daunting task easier; by providing an array of great wheat alternatives.

WHY WHEAT?
Wheat has a number of problems for the unsuspecting consumer. Firstly, because wheat is so predominant in Western food, we tend to eat too much of it. When we eat a particular food too often we are in danger of developing a food intolerance. The reason why wheat and dairy are the most common triggers for food intolerance is because they are the most common foods in our diets. Eating a particular food too often can cause the digestive enzymes to be overwhelmed. When this happens the particular food is not digested properly. This is more likely to happen with foods which are not particularly easy to digest in the first place. Wheat and dairy are not easy foods to digest.

So why is wheat difficult to digest? Wheat is highly sprayed and heavily processed. During processing wheat germ is stripped from the grain and this reduces its nutritional content. This means that the body is less equipped to process the toxins from the chemicals from spraying and from the refining process. The liver quickly becomes overwhelmed and stores the toxins in fat cells. Secondly, the wheat protein, called gluten, is very hard to digest.

LOSING WEIGHT BY CUTTING OUT WHEAT
When we become intolerant to a food eating it causes bloating and water retention making us appear overweight. When we cut out that food the bloating and water retention subsides.

Secondly, when we eat a food we are intolerant to it affects the efficiency of our digestive system. Poor digestion causes constipation which means we are not getting rid of waste products. This causes the toxin levels in our body to rise and the liver stores the toxins in fat cells. As the toxin levels rise, fat cells are created and maintained to assist with storage of toxins. When cut out the food we are intolerant to, our toxin levels fall and the body disposes of the fat cells.
