It is amazing what has happened to our wheat products in a few short decades. In efforts to increase yield, improve shelf life, and enhance our appetites, modern food producers have taken a staple of our diet (breads and grains) that humans have consumed for millennia with little or no health issues, and turned it into a "Frankenfood". Bread, which was a cheap, nutritious way to fill our stomachs for thousands of years, is now potentially the cause of obesity and a variety of inflammatory diseases.
A look at the processes we use to grow, harvest, mill, refine, enrich, and even bake our wheat products in the United States point to a number of alarming practices which individually or together may be compromising our grain products and our health. Let's start at the beginning.

Like most of my family members, I don’t take any meds/drugs at all-I never have and don’t intend to-pharma gives free stuff to docs who prescribe drugs to any and everyone-healthy people are better off just saying no thanks-I’ll stick with a healthy diet and natural supplements, working out and at a healthy weight on the light side...
I am over 65 and self employed full time in construction. So not all of us need any meds-I’ve also stayed away from processed, enriched or pesticide treated veggies, fruit and grains as well as any meat from feedlots, treated with hormones, etc-I do believe eating an all-organic diet and not consuming anything unnatural like drugs keeps people healthy at any age...
Thank you very much for posting.
My ex-wife used to buy this stuff called "orzo" I believe. I'd swear that was pasta seeds if there was such a thing.
Glyphosate was originally invented as a growth stimulant that had the side effect of killing the plant it accelerated.
I was not referring to people with celiac! I was referring to the many people who don’t digest wheat well, but find they surprisingly digest wheat well in other countries!
Do you have a link I could look at to see where you got your info? A quick look on google shows that at lower doses it can be used as a growth "regulator". Slows down growth so much that you can reduce mowing. I didn't spot anything saying that it could be used to stimulate growth. From what I can see on a quick search, it works by preventing plants from producing some proteins needed for growth.
Seeds take too long. Try to buy a semi-mature tree: Spaghetti Harvest.
My Doctor told me “no one should eat pasta and bread.” So, I don’t. I miss it, but have found ways to replace it. My LDL dropped from over 100 to around 40 inside of a year. Total cholesterol from 220 to 140’s.
