However the more research being done on wheat the more its been highlighted as the route of alot of health issues in the western dietā¦ the cross breeding of wheat in the 60s has left a protein so complex that the human body hasnāt evolved quickly enough to break it down.
I read āWheat Bellyā earlier this year and some of the findings are startling. The effect of wheat on your blood sugarsā¦ the brain fog, the growling stomach after a grain based cereal etcā¦ well worth a read if your into this stuff.[/quote]
My uncle in America has been on about this recently, perhaps the same book. Says that currently most wheat is practically undigestible and responsible for all sorts of bad stuff. I dismissed it out of hand cause he normally talks a lot of rubbish.
True, I was startled at first by her dealing mainly in pence , say 80p to make lentil stew etc. but then again what she was living on wasnāt even peanuts
He is not far off the mark. The rapid rise of coeliac disease is proof in itself.
They have measured blood sugars after ingesting wheat and compared the results against the blood sugar levels after eating a sugary bar. The wheat raises the blood sugar levels higher tjan the candy barā¦ Of course when that happens, insulin rushes into the bloodstream and starts converting the sugar into fatā¦ hense The Wheat Belly.
Anybody tried Aussie BBQ? Itās a lovely feed. They have Man v Food type challenges. I have turned into a fat coont. I aim to turn it around by end June 2014.

Interesting stuff. But is this only coming from one guy and do we really believe everything he says?
Iāve cut down on bread but still regularly eat homemade brown bread or seeded varieties. Pittas are especially handy.
Presumably pasta and cous cous are equally as bad then?

I used to have beans on toast or scrambled eggs on toast a fair bit in the evenings and Iād have 3 or 4 rounds of bread. I stopped eating bread (even though it was multigrain) about 3 or 4 months ago and Iāve lost a decent chunk of weight. Is there wheat in Beckās?
Itās a grain so youād use it as a replacement for something like cous cous or rice. You could mix up stuff like feta, sundried tomatoes, garlic, olive oil spring onions and what have you and have a nice salad out of it.
I know we all know that wheat is the devil but is it possible that your sudden weight loss was helped by dropping four slices of bread from your daily diet?
