"Wheat itself is crap. As far as grains go, it has the worst nutritional
profile. And it causes allergic reactions and GI problems. Virtually
all other grains are better tolerated by humans. Having said this,
grains are basically bird and ruminant feed and have little value
beyond that. They are basic fillers, with the implication that they
don't provide an abundance nutrition but they make for a cheap way of
rounding out a meal. And if the grains are refined, ie. white flour,
they contain virtually no useful nutrition other than a few of the
cheapest vitamins added to "enrich" the flour. Hardly a "staff of
life"."

And given your sterling record, not, of providing support for your
nutrition theology assertions, none of the above is worth the time to read
it. Time and time again those who take the time to follow up on your
assertions find them empty, of nutritiohn or anything else.
