    I had major stomach issues for 28 years, which inadvertently affected other parts of my health. I saw Specialist after Specialist to no avail. I went gluten free, dairy free and sugar free and within 1 week I was cured. I wish Doctors told me this 28 years ago! I’m not saying this will work for everyone, but it most definitely worked for me.

      So which one was the culprit, gluten, dairy or sugar? You should have eliminated each one separately. The fast majority of people have no issues with gluten or dairy. Absolutely everyone has issues with sugar. I’m glad you’re doing better, but don’t be to quick to Blane it on gluten until you’ve been medically tested.

    What this documentary doesn't reference is that glyphosate specifically binds to the gluten protein. This is described in plenty of scientific literature. A lot of the negative reactions to gluten are not caused by gluten per se, but by glyphosate.

      Yes and apparently the symptoms of glyphosate poisoning are virtually identical to those of celiac. So it might not be the gluten it might be the glyphosate. And it's sprayed on wheat, corn, oats, soybeans and more which means that if it is the glyphosate, merely avoiding wheat is not the answer.

      Great Info …
      Stephanie Seneff said two things :
      2. Glyphosate (in everything we eat/drink) uncouples the tight junctions in the gut that protect us from food waste moving through the gut wall.
      The uncoupling allows toxins in and is the cause of many illnesses (not least leaky gut)
      2. Glyphosate molecule is similar to that of GLYCINE which is very necessary for our health. This allows the totally toxic Glyphosate to bind to the receptor sites for Glycine - so our health deteriorates.
      Authorities claim Glyphosate is harmless ??? Apparently it is used world wide and is poisoning the planet. Research ZACH BUSH -his *Vermont* lecture is a good place to start.

    My 10 year battle with palm eczema, cracked and bleeding, was finally healing after 72 hours on a wheat free diet and was completely healed within 30 days. It may not be the gluten but perhaps the glyphosate or other chemicals or additives. Another small patch of eczema on the back of my neck started oozing clear pus and itching within an hour of ordering seasoned french fries at a drive through. Sure enough, I check the ingredients in the seasoning = WHEAT! My body had been crying out to me for years and I just did not understand the language my cells were speaking. I lost 20 pounds in 2 months even though I was consuming more calories than ever, trying to compensate for the calories I knew I was giving up.

I guess I never knew how it was affecting me until I stopped eating it. Lost weight, feel a LOT better, more energy and better mental clarity (memory). There's definitely something to it. Since then, I've talked to a lot of people who have had similar experiences. I'm pretty skeptical, but this is pretty obvious. Also, you need to follow the money to understand the propaganda.

    This is the first time I came across this Doc and I am not sure that I can confirm everything he says. But I will say this. Until 30 years ago I ate wheat most of my life. In the 1980s I stopped making my own bread and began to eat bread which I bought in stores. Suddenly weight gain began to pile on and my belly grew until it became embarrassing. But the worse part is that my vision began to fail. I can give a long list of side effects. Today if I eat bread from a bakery I get a severe reaction in my stomach as if I am getting a heart attack. However, if we make bread at home using organic wheat, I do not get the heart attack effect. However weight gain still comes on, although at a slower rate and there is nothing you can do to make it go away. When I cut out wheat, I lose weight at a rapid rate. I lost 35 lbs recently and I feel so much better.

    My son suffered from Asthma symptoms since 6mo. We were at the ER every other week, monthly visits to “asthma specialists” and of course no mention of gluten. Someone suggested I cut gluten from his diet for 3 months. I gave it a try and guess what? Not a single asthma crisis. Introduced gluten back and 3 days after a couple of innocent cookies and garlic bread he was wheezing. Tried that out a couple of times and every time he was wheezing after a couple of days. He is not celiac, but I am convinced the gluten causes his asthma symptoms to flare.
    I haven’t taken my son to any “specialists” in 3 years. That “allergy specialist” made fun of me when I suggested I was going to cut gluten. Guess he is sad he is not seeing out money any longer.

      I'm with you on that. I'm thin healthy and run around the oval. I left the dago diet behind over 15 years ago. I looked at the structure of starch. It's all glucose, all sugar. But bread, rice and pasta does not taste sweet. That's the deception. What's happening is the glucose peak. This was the myth. We don't get an energy lift after sugar intake. We actually get a low. I even fall asleep after coffee and toast. The toast is making me tired. Then hours later comes the energy and the massive hunger cravings. This is the cycle and the 'addiction' people claim they have. Along with the mood swings. I test this out occasionally. I may eat a bowl of pasta once every five years and sure enough, I'm half alive and then moody, stodgy bowel, followed by cravings.

Wheat because we have eaten too much of it, its been too much of our diet. Variety is important. People have become allergic to different wheat proteins in large numbers, so cutting back on it has helped many people. Don't worry about finding substitutes, simply eat other things.

The latest science has found that it's actually carbs that's the culprit. And in that regard, corn, rice and potatoes are even worse than wheat in carb content and glycemic index. Also, not all vegetables are healthy. For example, beans, sweet potatoes, rutabaga, turnips and beets are to be avoided. At the very beginning of this documentary, Davis is having a meal without wheat but he's drinking red wine... Those of us who follow a Keto lifestyle know that alcohol is even worse than wheat.

    Thank you to The Fifth Estate for presenting both sides in their reports. While there are certainly people who must avoid certain foods or components of food, that doesn't make Wheat a blanket enemy. Wheat is and has been a nutritional necessity for billions of people all over the world. Those in the 1st world countries are discovering themselves having health issues for many reasons, but mostly because of the nutrient deficient, over processed ingredients in our food. Bread as most of us know it is "white bread". It is made with flour that has been stripped of it's nutrition, fiber and almost all of the components that made natural whole grain flour healthy. Some say that it is healthy because the companies put back in some of the stuff that was removed. But they don't return all, and what they do put back in are synthetic because leaving them in or replacing with natural components would make it non shelf stable. Natural wheat flour bread made with whole grain wheat that is not heavily processed is healthy, but does spoil quickly. The natural flour itself is less shelf stable so it must be used more quickly than people will be able to buy it. The dangerous things added to the food items we are eating are sugar, bleach, synthetic chemicals, fillers, preservatives and in some cases, the pesticides used on the grain during the growing process. Eliminating all products from a diet that contain wheat, eliminates all those bad things but is Dr Davis looking at that? His shortsightedness eliminates a lot of healthy nutrition in order to cut out the items that are the real danger. Will people lose weight on a diet without wheat? Of course. Eliminating all foods that contain wheat means cutting out the over processed flour foods that so many are eating like white bread, pasta, cereals, crackers, bakery, cookies, gravies and sauces - all of which contain wheat, but also contain a host of fats, sugars, salt, chemicals and preservatives that are the real culprits.
    Look at people who live in areas where pasta is eaten daily and often at every meal. Many live well into their 90s and even beyond 100. How? The pasta is made with hard Durham wheat and not adulterated with nearly as many chemicals as other countries. The wheat itself isn't the problem - it is what happens to the flour during the processing and what is added to the pasta dish after cooking. The rest of their diet consists of low protein (3-6 ounces per day) and a much higher amount of fresh vegetables and fruits than we typically eat at each meal. Dishes are more natural, served with only a drizzle of simple fats or vinegar and oil instead of heavy dressings.
    Rice has also become a nutrient deficient item. Stripped of most of it's vitamins and fiber during processing to give us a fluffy, light item to carry a sauce or gravy for flavor. Brown rice is better, by keeping it's fiber and nutrition and it keeps us full longer - allowing our bodies time to process any sugars that are added by consuming fruits, vegetables and sauces that are added to the meal. This helps us avoid the glucose spikes that diabetics often experience.
    As our species have explored the glove and discovered new and exciting foods - we want them. But many don't travel well in their natural state so they are harvested before they are ripe or are processed with chemicals to survive the travel. The real health culprits are in those things that our bodies were not designed to eat and the fact that industry has not found a way to keep foods in their natural, intact state long enough to get them from the farms to the table without spoiling. It is cheaper for them to strip the nutrition that allows food to spoil quickly and add in synthetic additives, salts, sugars and preservatives that our bodies can't process.

      @@leykimayri Sugar and highly processed foods containing little fiber or nutrition are dangerous. Ingesting large amounts of simple carbs will spike glucose levels very quickly for those who are diabetic. Whole grain Durham wheat does have carbohydrates but it also has protein and nutrients that slow it's being absorbed - allowing the body time to handle the more complex carb. As a diabetic, I have studied and experimented with many dishes containing carbs to manage my glucose levels without having to take insulin. It is a matter of moderation and balancing carb and protein intake.

      It sounds like your disappointed because you expected the program to validate your opinions and when it didn't you decided to instead discredit their investigation based on baseless accusations and unfounded conspiracies. You feel personally attacked because this investigation did not confirm your life choice. This sort of close minded position that so easily shuts down opposition without consideration, but with slander, is childish, and quite frankly sad.
      Try to be open minded and listen to any evidence put forth. Draw your own conclusions, but base them on the evidence and not on perceived conspiracies or simply because you do not like what you hear.

    If we'd waited for "definitive proof" that cigarettes were addictive, we couldn't make that claim until the 1980's. Consumers don't need definitive proof. If they want to know if they're addicted, they can just try to quit grains for one month. They can see for themselves whether or not they have overwhelming cravings, dizziness or moodiness, the shakes/jitters, and then a couple weeks later, whether or not they get better sleep, have more energy, etc.. Even if you're right, and not everyone is negatively impacted by wheat, there's no denying that a lot of people are glad they gave it up!

      The problem isn't wheat but refined carbohydrates. It the equivalent of replacing cigars with cigarettes because they have a filter, but you're still consuming too much.
      Cutting bread only helps if you don't replace it with other carbs. If you replace spaghetti with spaghetti squash, that's a huge savings in carbs and calories. That's what makes the difference. If you're simply consuming gluten free products, you're just switching to cigarettes.

      If you don't have celiac disease or any sort of gluten intolerance then it won't make a difference. As someone who studies dietetics you people need to realise that people with real gluten intolerance have their small intestine destroyed by an auto-immune response to gliadin (a part of the gluten protein). It's genetic and a doctor can test you to see if your body is producing these immune bodies in high numbers. People without the genetic mutation have absolutely no problem digesting gluten. Gluten also has no effect on your cholesterol profile or weight gain.
