Eating Well: It's Possible, and the Menu Is Good
If you're thinking about adopting a healthier diet, you need to consider gluten-free diet, is an excellent idea. Agri-food experts report that right now, 99 % of the wheat on the market is genetically modified (GMO), and this factor is linked to a large number of health problems.
Wheat genetically modified It contains more genes than the original wild wheat grain that was eaten centuries ago. These extra genes make people susceptible to developing wheat and gluten allergies and gluten intolerance. This rarely happens with the original wild wheat plant, or emmer wheat.
This genetically modified wheat has been associated with approximately 300 different diseases, including diabetes, neurological disorders, infertility, migraines, irritable bowel syndrome, gastric disturbances, Crohn's disease, multiple sclerosis, heart arrhythmias, heart disease, high blood pressure and any other degenerative disease. So when you stop eating wheat and other grains that contain gluten, you give your body a chance to rest and heal. (You just have to stop eating them; otherwise, you’ll start the cycle over and over again.)
