Why Your Doctor Can't Help You With Celiac Disease Or Wheat Intolerance, Part 3 Of 3

In this final installment, I am going to speak to mental health
practitioners and how they are often involved in trying to help people
with the symptoms of wheat intolerance and undiagnosed Celiac
disease.Because the symptoms of celiac disease and undiagnosed wheat
intolerance manifest themselves in many ways many people also wind up
seeking the help of a psychiatrist, because they think their going
crazy their having memory problems or are depressed. The situation
with psychiatry is that only about 10% of us are nutritionally
metabolically and bio chemically balanced enough to fully benefit from
psychotherapy. What's more, years of psychoanalysis or therapy will
not reverse the depression or brain fog that comes from simple but
profound deficiencies like low omega three fatty acid status, or a
lack of a vitamin B12, a low functioning thyroid or chronic toxicity
which comes from eating wheat and gluten.But the reality is that most
of these brain dysfunctions that come from consuming wheat, for people
who can't digest it, fall on the lighter side of mental health issues.
And the fact is most psychiatrists and neurologists wouldn't qualify
these problems as treatable diseases, yet they still cause unnecessary
suffering for so many people - enough to seriously disrupt their
lives. These include chronic stress, lack of focus and weak
concentration, brain fog, anger, mood swings, sleep problems or just
feeling anxious or depressed most of the time.Because these issues are
so pervasive, people suffering from the symptoms are one of the main
reasons in today's society why so many people should try avoiding
wheat and gluten to see if their health improves and they become more
vital and alive.I've seen so many examples of people who've tried the
wheat and gluten free lifestyle, despite not having any of the classic
symptoms - and they report feeling so much better.If you think the
related mental conditions are a small problem or only affect a few
people I urge you to consider the following statistics:Psychiatric
disorders affect 26% of the adult population or more than 60,000,000
Americans
More than 20% of children have some type of psychiatric disorder
More than 40,000,000 people have anxiety
More than 20,000,000 people have depression
One in 10 Americans takes an antidepressant daily
The use of antidepressants has tripled in the last decade
In 2006 Americans spent $1.9 billion on antidepressant medication
Attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder is a label we now give
8.7% of children between the ages of eight and 15
More than eight million or one in 10 children now take stimulant
medications like Ritalin
Autism rates have increased from three in 10,000 children to one in
166 children - an 11 fold increase over the last decade
Learning disabilities affect between five and 10% of school age
childrenThe indirect costs of these issues to society are massive.
They include loss of productivity at school at home and in the
workplace accounting for a loss of an estimated $80,000,000,000 per
year there's something really wrong with this picture. The stats mean
that nearly one in three of us suffers from some kind of mental
disorder. Is this supposed to be the way the human condition is in
modern times? I don't think so.The problem is that we have been
looking for answers to these issues in all of the wrong places and
that is in the corners of our past and in the chemical quote
"imbalances" in our brains which were supposed to treat with the
latest drug therapy.Moreover this is especially true of psychiatry and
neurology which are the two specialties that typically treat brain
disorders.Neurologists and psychiatrists focus on treating your brain
using medications and psychotherapy. In fact most psychiatrists and
neurologists focus solely on their favor organ... the brain and ignore
the rest of the body. But what if the cure for brain disorders is
outside the brain? What if mood, memory attention and behavior
problems and most other brain diseases have the root cause somewhere
else in the body in places where treatable imbalances can be easily
fixed? What if they are not localized in the brain? If this is true it
would mean that our whole medical approach to dealing with brain
disorders is completely backward.Based on my own experience and that
of dozens of people I've helped around the world I am 100% convinced
that it is.Of course if the body is in balance, working with the
spiritual dimensions of our suffering is a good idea. But it is a
really tough road to hoe without addressing our diet and our genes
before we attempt to change our brain chemistry.If you have a
significant biological imbalance from eating wheat and gluten,
psychotherapy is a distraction and complete waste of time.I've seen
this problem amplified in so many different ways because the symptoms
of mental illness that come as a result of people eating wheat which
is blocking the absorption of key nutrients causes many problems like
anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder personality, disorders obsessive
compulsive disorders attention deficit disorders autism asp burgers
learning difficulties and dyslexia to name a few.Clearly you can see
how the diagnosis of these mental illnesses can result in all kinds of
treatments which don't produce much in the way of a meaningful results
and that is because these symptoms take many shapes including
psychotic disorders like as schizophrenia in some cases not to mention
degenerative diseases that are typically associated with aging such as
Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease.Unless you are comfortable that
your doctor is up on the subject of food intolerances and celiac
disease, I would not hold out much hope for getting any meaningful
support or direction from your doctor. or your psychiatrist until
you've ruled out wheat and gluten in your diet.And that is why the
current medical profession in my opinion is broken... because they'd
don't look at the body as a system rather they look at the body as
individual units. In another video where I will outline some testing
options you can pursue, with different medical approaches, such as
naturopathy which can help you gain more conclusive evidence whether
or not you should avoid wheat and gluten in addition to other foods
you may also be intolerant to.In conclusion it is important to
understand that it's not your doctor or psychiatrists' fault that they
can't help you solve the puzzle of your symptoms as it relates to
wheat and gluten consumption - it just the system they work in.The
fact is, in most cases neither of those medical professionals have
enough training or the awareness yet to help eliminate the underlying
causes of wheat intolerance or celiac disease and it's up to you to
take responsibility with your own health and other treatment and
diagnostic options available to solve the problem..
