I ran out of regular coffee the other day. So I substituted the decaf that Hubby had bought me by mistake. It was good. I had my usual three cups. What I didnt have was my usual icepick headaches. Or a migraine.
It was blissful.
So I'm thinking in addition to the 'real food' thing, I'll be doing a little detoxification. Not the drink-only-wheatgrass or lemonaid-and-maple-syrup detoxes. (While those do sound......horrifying) I'm going to start by cutting out my main caffeine source. Then all caffeine, refined sugar, and if I'm up to it, wheat and glutens. Thought I'm not so sure I'm ever going to be ready to give up pasta and bread. Because I love pasta and bread. A horrible, soul crushing love. But if it will help me feel wonderful and be healthy.... worth it.
You can have my cheese when you pry it from my cold dead hands.
Cutting out gluten only makes you feel better if you have a sensitivity to it or are gluten intolerant. Whole wheat bread and pastas are great sources of fiber and other nutrients.
