Guest guest Posted September 5, 2010 Report Share Posted September 5, 2010 When I was reviewing info on alcoholism - there was soemthing about how long it takes to heal the body from its effects- sometimes years. That also applies to carbs. Since I need to be off of gluten containing flours and foods (but I have been craving and eating them lately) I can expect some healing as I strive to better nourish my body. They mentioned acute withdrawal and post acute withdrawal from alcohol, but I kept seeing connections to starches and sugars as I read it. That means to me that every attempt I make to try to eat clean does something good for my body. It takes more time for me to establish positive habits - I have to work to the level of consistency over a period of at least 6 weeks to 90 days. Being careful and gentle with myself and my alters helps - I have to have a democracy inside so that there will be no acting out in less safe ways by the others.
