Very important article! Thanks ! They're adding fish oil as well. U.K. has

had good success with recidivism requiring fatty acids and mutivitamins as

part of probation. Beginning to think that not only is there the opioid,

zonulin issues with gluten but also a dopamine trigger making you want more

like comfort foods do and shutting off common sense and impulse control,

what happens in alcoholics that get hooked the worst.

I wonder what will happen if they prove such a connection

exists ... wheat eating seems to be connected with anger issues (based

on talking to lots of parents and seeing what happened in our family).

It definitely has someting to do with turning off appetite suppression ...

no one in our family CAN overeat at this point (my DH used to be able

to eat a whole pizza ... his appestat must have been jammed, no human

being NEEDS a whole pizza!).

Anyway, if they prove wheat eating causes some people to commit

crimes, do they ban it? Make you have a license to buy it? I guess it's

a moot point, alcohol makes people do all kinds of crazy stuff but

people still drink. Tho not as much as they used to ...

Heidi,

The U.K. probation study used only fatty acids from fish oil and

multivitamins. Would be interesting to see how much more recidivism

decreased with gluten elimination like the dyslexic children who were given

fish oil along with gluten elimination. Can it be said opioids alone don't

affect everyone somehow? Was going through old posts yesterday and found

these Hoggan articles sent to list by Dr. Marasco

http://www.gluten-free.org/hoggan/ check these out along with Dr.

Fine's site http://www.finerhealth.com/Educational_Info/Gluten_Sensitivity/

Hoggan article on depression has this paragraph

Opioids, of course, will compete for endorphin receptors in the synapses,

thus altering the neurotransmission at synapses where the opioids have

attached.

Even if a accurate study showed wheat definitely linked to crime or all the

diseases in Dangerous Grains it would be like the sugar lobby fighting the

WHO link to sugar consumption and decreased health. On the celiac newsgroup

not list IIRC there was a thread where a woman from Canada was upset someone

who was from the U.S. wasn't being tested and was giving it up on her own.

Came down to again IIRC in Canada if you have a celiac diagnosis you are

given a tax credit of some kind because your food costs more. She didn't

know it wasn't the same here. Now that's preventive health. Supposedly with

nutrigenomic type individual specific diets wheather one can eat wheat or

anything else without harm can be determined. People that do crazy stuff on

alcohol do it because alcohol activates dopamine shutting off impulse

control and keeping them going instead of serotonin which relaxes and puts

to sleep others. Some seem to get both effects depending on what they drink.

Yeah, that is a good book! It shocked even me. Not so much because

it is written for shock value ... actually they are rather conservative in

their estimates, considering what else I've read ... but because it is so

well-researched. I started this thinking " wheat hating " was a new-age

thingie, and had NO IDEA it was actually researched by folks like the

University of land and other mainstream labs.

I don't think anyone gives it up by being shocked though ... after

all, people still smoke like mad, drive drunk and don't wear

seatbelts. It's when you finally FEEL GOOD

and then suddenly feel bad the next time you eat it!
