Re: whole grain wheat

"The mediterraneans and the japanese do not eat huge amounts of sugars.
They eat moderate amounts of pasta and/or rice. They eat a lot of fresh
whole-food foods with minimal processing. They eat entirely adequate
amounts of healthy fats (fish fats, olive oil, etc). The live closer to
the soil with little extra food processing other than just cooking the
fresh foods. These foods are filling and full of real nutrition."

The e. asia diet tradition has around 70 percent of carbohydrates in
refined grain products, that is the paradox that low carbohydrate
advocates must account for in their claims. If one doesn't over consume
then problems are far less likely, and in the e. asian diet tradition they
are active and not overweight.
