    You can not eat a NON GMO wheat today, it is all GMO wheat that you eat.

    Can you imagine if the author's allegations were proven true what it would do to the agri industrial complex? This would be like saying cell phones cause brain cancer. Things like this are things no one wants to open the door and publicly admit any veracity. So go by common sense. Cut back on what they say are 'HEALTHY GRAINS' and then get healthier. Eat like the caveman diet, more meat, more fat, more butter, more eggs, less grains, less sugar, less processed food.

    Grain fed beef and poultry, well they do that to fatten them up for slaughter.
    Eat like a caveman and die at 20

    HaHa, the idea is gaining traction!

    Eat no wheat.

    That is the core, draconian commandment of a gluten-free diet, a prohibition that excises wide swaths of American cuisine — cupcakes, pizza, bread and macaroni and cheese, to name a few things.

    For the approximately one-in-a-hundred Americans who have a serious condition called celiac disease, that is an indisputably wise medical directive.


    One woman’s story of going gluten-free.

    Now medical experts largely agree that there is a condition related to gluten other than celiac. In 2011 a panel of celiac experts convened in Oslo and settled on a medical term for this malady: non-celiac gluten sensitivity.
    and

    Dr. O’Bryan has given himself a diagnosis of gluten sensitivity. “I had these blood sugar abnormalities and didn’t have a handle where they were coming from,” he said. He said a blood test showed gliadin antibodies, and he started avoiding gluten. “It took me a number of years to get completely gluten-free,” he said. “I’d still have a piece of pie once in a while. And I’d notice afterwards that I didn’t feel as good the next day or for two days. Subtle, nothing major, but I’d notice that.”
    I have cut significantly back on of wheat and have noticed this also. Perhaps due to chronic low level inflammation of eating wheat, you get used to the blah feeling.

    When talking of eating wheat it is also worth mentioning how it has been processed. Is it whole grain, white, brown or malted? That is also a factor as the presence of husk, soluble fiber, and wheat germ, a highly nutritious food, could easily be as important as whether the crop was gmo or not when determining it's food value.
