All horse poop.
ANY carbohydrates are eventual fat cell fillers.
Hispanics have a large propensity for obesity and diabetes. They eat very little wheat, but consume large amounts of corn tortillas.
Almost everything they eat is wrapped in a tortilla.
Dr. Belly Fat’s research was probably funded by the corn lobby.
Corn, wheat, and rice are all grains.
I’m always fascinated when I come across something like this. I always ask myself, if our society was to be frozen in place, like Pompeii, what would future archeologists surmise about our society from what we were doing, what we were eating, what we were making?
From what I can guess is that the human body was not really designed to thrive using the current energy sources. Processed carb sources provide energy but most likely the wrong type. If that ends up being the case, how do we slowly move away from that is the question. Processed foods have become the norm and not the exception over my lifetime. Our society has chosen the faster and more cost effective full feeling foods versus the slower and more costly base foods. Maybe there is something to it, but I think we need to spend more time researching. Modern science is really in it’s infancy and for all intents we have no idea how processed grains and sugar effect the human body in the long term, because the studies really have only been happening for a few decades and humans evolved over millions of years.
When I was following the Atkins lifestyle, I was almost never hungry and then only after I drank alcoholic beverages. I’ve been following the principles but I still have a pizza and bowl of spags once in a while and I feel great. I read the same from people going Paleo.
