whole grains are actually worse than the traditional stuff.

How's that again? Whole grains were around long before processed foods.

That’s the latest theory. Here’s an explanation:

We’ve only been eating grains, whole or otherwise, for a very, very short portion of the evolutionary life of modern humans.

That doesn't make them good for you. We're not evolved to eat grasses or seeds. I never believed this stuff till I did give them up.

The difference in my health is amazing. I wouldn't touch grains or starches again. Now, understand, please, that I'm not advocating government intervention here.

Eat what you want. But there is something to the wheat-free diets.
