Yes. It’s really safest to just eat human flesh.

It may end up not actually being the wheat that is the issue, but the rapid rise method of making modern bread which is responsible for all the gluten problems. Prior to the 1950’s bread was made using a cold fermentation process which altered the gluten so that it was more digestible.

I get headaches from most supermarkets bought bread. The ones I eat have no high fructose corn syrup or msg but there is something in them or more likely probably not labeled correctly as I know the before mention ingredients which do affect me are known by different names.

I can buy bread at a bakery like Abby’s http://www.abbysmillstone.com/ and their bread has no after effect so I figure it is some sort of preservative in the bread at supermarkets. The bakery bread does not last as long before spoiling.

Bread I eat from the supermarket that least affects me: Miltons
http://www.miltonsbaking.com/product-detail/multi-grain
BTW their whole grain crackers are really good.

Anyone have any idea what chemical/ingredients to avoid?

I know that corn, wheat, rice, and starchy foods make me gain weight. It starts slow and then suddenly accelerates to frightening levels. There’s a very strange but definite pattern to it.

Pretty good, but there’s just something about Vladimir Gluten. Maybe it hearkens back to the days of Soviet bread lines.

If this goes viral, there will be a lot of VERY MAD wheat growers.

So, red meat, dairy, sugar, corn, rice, and now wheat are certified by “experts” to be bad for me.

Absolutely - and they are all on the diet I opted to use to lose 20 lbs (11 down 9 to go). Heavy on the meats/other proteins and the rest in moderation. Replaces a very high card (love bread way too much) diet. Net effects are loss of excess weight, more energy (once I got past the initial week of almost zero carbs) and even more regularity in all aspects of bowel movements.

That stupid pyramid should be reversed, Protein, Dairy, fruits and veggies, GRAIN should be the least item consumed.

Not to mention the small factoid they leave out. SUGAR. 1\3rd of your daily calorie intake is from SUGARY Liquids. Chugging them soda’s down by the 2 liter a day is just a way to get FAT faster.

Want to lose weight safe, use a type 2 diabetic diet. Replace all high sugar fruits with low sugar ones. Have a treat now and then. Also brings your cholesterol down. Bake, broil, grill, not breaded meats, no gravies. A drizzle of olive oil and a smidgen of butter add great flavor with the least amount of calories.

would that be GMO gluten or non-GMO gluten

Also, would that be gluten in 100% whole grain bread vs gluten as an additive or gluten in processed grains

FWIW, the only gluten I eat is from 100% whole grains. That seems to be fine.

> Bread Dread: Are you Really Gluten Intolerant?

I’m not gluten intolerant, however, I have bad gastro problems with GMO wheat products. The non-GMO stuff is fine. When Monsanto modified the wheat to make it toxic to insects, whatever made them think it wouldn’t be toxic to some humans? Since the toxin that make it undesirable to insects is bound to the gluten, people think they are that they are gluten intolerant, when actually they are GMO intolerant.

GMO wheat is not sold in the USA. Since the 80’s modern wheat has been developed so that it has properties of other grains normally not consumed by humans. From what I have read, this is mainly what is causing digestive problems when commercial wheat products are consumed. (See Davis, WHEAT BELLY)

GMO soy beans and corn, however, are consumed in the US.

Soybeans in the diet promote both weight gain and the supposed gluten allergy.

1. I am not a mouse
2. Wheat fed the world for millennium going back to the Stone Age
3. Gluten sensitivity doesn’t exist
4. Our lack of activity not our diets are the culprit
