Rheumatoid Arthritis and Crohn's-like symptoms knocked me on my ass, doctor's and multiple trials of biologics and other assorted meds made me worse,I now fight my battle solo with whole, vegan, mostly raw foods...AND my disease is mostly in remission! I am mostly pain-free! I am LIVING again, not just breathing!

Chocolate, Cheese, Meat, and Sugar -- Physically Addictive
Anyone can ask me what the hardest part of raw is and i will tell them: PIZZA
Why? Bread and Cheese has always been the perfect food for me. For pizza you could substitute grilled cheese, cheese quesadilla...
So the information at this site has really helped:

Here is a quote:

"Learn more about food addictions
To learn more about the chemical effects of how casein turns into casomorphins, you may want to Google Dr. Neal Barnard or Dr. Bill Harris, both of whom are medical doctors that I have heard speak to this topic.
You can also watch Dr. Neal Barnard’s lectures on addictive foods and cheese on this page above or read his book Breaking the Food Seduction, where he also addresses the topic.
To learn more about how to clean out your taste buds for a lifetime of good health using the 30 Day Vegan Challenge you may also refer to my book, Vegan in 30 Days.
Best of success!"(end quote)
