That is, from heaven to nutritional hell. The beginning of the agricultural era, the worst mistake for the health of humanity in its history.
Moving from apple to cereal meant moving from health to disease.
The expulsion from paradise.
I can not think of a worse punishment.
The "nutritional pyramid" is the tomb of health
One of the biggest and most insidious lies in food history: placing the cereal at the base of the nutritional pyramid elaborated in 1992. Something that should be considered a crime against the health of humanity. It is incredible that a simple scheme has created the largest obesity epidemic in the history of mankind.
Luckily, it was corrected in the new nutritional pyramid of 2005 (Mypyramyd) and in the one of 2011 (Myplate), although too simplified, placing fruits and vegetables in the base and the grain in the vertex.
Anyway, these recommendations are made from agricultural and non-sanitary organisms. Do you see the reason for the deception? Even with the changes, the original of 1992 continues to roam at ease through schools and medical centers.
But until the mentality of the average person does not assimilate it, it will be decades. Many have already become sick and others will get sick because of that bad nutritional advice that is still in the minds of consumers.
Yes, the nutritional pyramid of the nineties is one of the most serious mistakes made by the human species and that has led to the current epidemics of obesity and many other diseases.
Just as the curse of Pharaoh Tutankhamun reached those who violated his tomb, the curse of modern wheat will sooner or later reach all those who consume Frankenstrigo. The number one enemy of your health.
I would like to share with you one fact and that is that cereals pose a problem: gluten. And gluten alters the lining of the small intestine, hindering the absorption of some nutrients (malnutrition); and what is worse, allowing toxic substances to pass from the intestine to the bloodstream, and therefore, to the whole organism.

Gluten: the protein of mass destruction
The word gluten means 'glue'. Saliva? Of course not, a glue does not encourage the desire to ingest it. Why does it act like this ?, because it agglutinates and behaves like a tail, gives consistency, and therefore is included in many foods as a binding agent. In short, cereals, like carbohydrates, are the great catastrophe of modern food. A criterion error that has led us to the current obesity and diabetes epidemic.
I do not think most people are obese because they eat too much, but because they eat the wrong foods.
As far as I know, gluten is an amorphous protein found in the seeds of cereals such as wheat, barley, rye, triticale, spelled, and hybrids and their derivatives. It is 80% of the proteins in wheat, and is composed of gliadin and glutenin. What you do not know is that it causes "leaky gut syndrome" and myriad health problems. It is a highly inflammatory protein, only for that reason should be discarded and not allow the immune system to go mad.
I believe that gluten is the first risk factor in the health of any person. Ignoring this threat (the cereal threat) is irresponsible with what is now known about this issue. I understand that having a cupcake tastes very good, but we should not deceive ourselves, as the ostrich does, looking elsewhere. The facts and proven facts are incontestable.
I do not know if anyone who reads this book follows or will follow a diet, or many, but just get away from gluten will get a quantum leap in their well-being. Abandoning cereal (and its gluten) is the most transcendent change that can be made.
If the reader believes that this does not go with him, he is wrong, it is not necessary to be celiac (celiac disease affects 0.01% of the world population, although depending on the countries, it goes up to 1, 2 and even 3%) Be on guard against this neurotoxic. It is estimated that between 10 and 30% of the population is hypersensitive to gluten, without knowing it. It is what is called SGNC (non-celiac gluten sensitivity). And I enter that "package". What represents a third of the population!
The rest of the population is apparently not affected, it is an asymptomatic group, but you will undoubtedly see your health compromised in the long term due to the regular consumption of toxic protein (gluten).
Gluten acts silently, without you noticing, with devastating effects on long-term health. It is a time bomb that we should deactivate everyone as soon as possible. And be celiac, SGNC, or asymptomatic, it does not matter.
Celiac disease is intolerance to the gluten protein. It is chronic and has no cure. The symptoms of this autoimmune disease are identified by diarrhea, malnutrition, belly swelling, vomiting, nausea ..., also extradigestive manifestations such as pain, cramps, fatigue, dermatitis ... The only solution is (in Europe) to look for the barred spike that guarantees the absence of gluten in the products we consume. And follow a gluten free lifestyle.
Gluten intolerance is not just a problem of the intestinal tract, its relationship with neurological diseases is proven. Perhaps, your digestive system does not show sensitivity to gluten, and do not feel discomfort when consuming it, but that does not rid you of its silent and invisible effects on the nervous system. We are all neurologically sensitive to gluten. No one escapes its effects, whether there are symptoms or not.
In fact, anyone can be compromised the impermeability of their intestine by eating foods with gluten. And, without wanting to discourage anyone, I must clarify that the few gluten-free cereals do not rid you of problems either: keep in mind the cross-contamination. In addition, gluten is added to other processed foods.
Sometimes I give thanks for my headache because it is a symptom of a bigger and more serious problem. The small symptom always warns that something greater is not in order. Thanks to the warning that is the headache I can focus on correcting the problem that causes it before those headaches give way to something really serious. I have been very fortunate for my sensitivity to gluten, I believe that it has saved me from much greater problems in the future than I have suffered in the past.
No matter the size of the dose (do not fool yourself with "I will take a little food with gluten nothing else"). The least amount of gluten triggers all the effects, regardless of the dose, think that what you eat is information, and that information is what activates the reaction.
It is not about negotiating the quantity but the quality of what is eaten.
And if it is not for direct consumption, it is due to cross-contamination, or even for "cross-reactivity": the immune system confuses gluten-free cereals with cereals with gluten simply by a phenomenon of "molecular mimicry". For example, why do thyroid patients get better with the elimination of gluten? Because gluten mimics the structure of the thyroid cell. The immune system confuses them and, instead of attacking gluten, attacks the thyroid. And although the causal element is different, the effects end up being the same.
O.M.G. (Oh my God) If I had known before!
Maybe you're wondering: And our ancestors? Did not they suffer all those pernicious effects of gluten? Of course they suffered, although they did not relate it to wheat and its derivatives.
But
