Most grains have been genetically altered and our systems just can't handle them. When I eat wheat I find I get really bloated even if it's those supposed natural grains telling me they're not natural. The results have been startling too. I'm almost 49 with abs. I do occasionally cheat though. If I go have breakfast I'll add some gluten free toast. Bacon & eggs feels just empty without the toast on the side.
Something you should know about wheat.....after its harvested it is graded according to quality.
Around 1910 or so ,it became standard to bleach grain before grinding, which brought up the volume of human food supply, and high graded 50 to 70 percent of wheat ,that would have otherwise have been used for animal feed, and meat production.
Wheat that has not been bleached is of the highest quality, and hasn't been gassed with poisons ,in a giant hopper.
Depending on the year un-bleached flour can be as low as 15 % harvest volume.
On a side note.....around 1910 all grading , food standards, and processing were changed in grains and meats to feed the expected population explosion that was predicted for the next 60 years.
Marbled meat, bleached wheat, further processing, and factory farming became a matter of North American concern .....they were actually afraid that there wouldn't be enough food. It was at this time that the "new" more sustainable standards came into effect.
Any wheat that didn't make the grade, was pumped into animals.....marbling the fat induced meat, changing the standard. Although more tender, because it grew more rapidly, and the same volume of red meat was produced from a far younger animal....a new " better" standard was developed, and a use was found for the wheat that couldn't be gassed or bleached for the growing human population.
Bleaching or gassing became the standard, just like plastic containers to sell and store food.....back when testing wasn't yet developed ,to study the long term effects.
This fear was further added to in the 1930's.....in the 40's North American Governments , started building experimental farms, to alter animal livestock genetics , and seed banks for crop production.
These Government Experimental Farms are still around and in production......Frankenfood has been around for over 100 years.
For the record.....I only buy un-bleached flour, and only eat grass fed beef.
